[SyncEvolution] Mac Client
Hi all,
I've just recently bought an HTC Hero phone and was looking to sync
it with my Mac. It looks like SyncEvolution might be a piece of that
puzzle, so I was going to play with updating the mac plugin to version
0.9. I'm not sure I want to take on a long term maintenance role
though... :)
I'm new to this. I'm just downloading the code now. Is there
anything you want to tell me before I start?
In particular, I came across this in the list archives:
For Mac OS X there isn't much choice: the code depends on the
Funambol "VOCL" vCard encoder/decoder, which is no longer available.
Short of adding it again (either the old GPL-licensed copy or the
current AGPL one) there's nothing that can be done in 0.9. It should
be rewritten to access the Synthesis field list.
Any estimates on how much work that would be?
Finally, there seemed to be talk of making syncevolution run as a
server (using Synthesis?). Is this currently planned? If so, is it
far future, near future...?
Be well,
Will :-}
