I´ll try to bring it back ASAP Could you please file a bug so I won´t forget about it?

ok done. thanks for all your work on this!

First of all, thanks for a great note-taking app!

Then on to business: I updated Conboy yesterday and now it's disappeared from my desktop and application menu (shows up in Application Manager, though). I have quite a lot of notes already and I don't wanna lose them which brings me to my question: Is it safe to uninstall and then reinstall Conboy to get the icons back or will I lose all my notes?

Big thanks!

Sorry for the inconvenience with the icon.
It's totally save to uninstall Conboy. You're notes won't get touched.
It's also possible to create a backup using the build-in backup tool. Those backups also contain all your Conboy notes. That's generally a good idea before installing testing/devel software.

But as I said, uninstall/install won't touch your notes

Conboy 0.6.3 is in extras-testing now.
Please give it some testing love, so we could get it into extras within 10 days as a new years present. That would be the 33.12.2009

Anyways, should be there once everyone is sober again...

I'll list cons only:

1. Portrait mode is unusable. I can only read notes.

2. Option "XML Storage Backend" is useless, because without it Conboy doesn't work anyway.

3. In Polish locales, sorting options are not fully seen.

You wouldn't be able to type notes anyway considering the virtual keyboard only supports landscape mode.

We don't have any portrait keyboard yet (not even matchbox or xkbd yet).

I fail to see how being able to read notes makes it unusable. Portrait mode is optimized for one handed use and there is no portrait keyboard. So what do you expect? If it's about following links, there's already a bug report about it. What else?

2. Option "XML Storage Backend" is useless, because without it Conboy doesn't work anyway.

There are currently two more plugins in developement. hopefully more in the future. It will make sense then.

3. In Polish locales, sorting options are not fully seen.

Could you please file a bug about this. Preferable with replacement strings.

Thanks for the feedback.

Conny, does this version (0.6.3) fix the sync issue as well? Currently, I also can't get beyond the blank authorisation screen from one.ubuntu.com (it doesn't go back to conboy). I am very much looking forward to that feature!

EDIT: I just saw that you took out Sync. Never mind the question. still looking forward to it, though :-)

Thanks for all the work. I love Conboy... together with gPodder and MaStory they are my favorite apps on the N900.

Happy Holidays!
