Oct 24 06:09 <mcrha> I wanted to suggest a 'patch review day', say on next tuesday or week after that, but as you mentioned above, you've couple of work, so maybe later

Oct 24 06:09 <srag> mcrha, nothing this week and next week.

Oct 24 06:10 <mcrha> that's fine :)

Oct 24 06:10 *srinidhi is now known as srinidhi|afk

Oct 24 06:10 <srag> mcrha, I think you plan it this time and I hope that you will be on the reviewing side this time :)

Oct 24 06:10 <mcrha> otherwise I moved some bugs from our bugzilla and attached some patches, and I will try to continue with it

Oct 24 06:10 <srag> mcrha, great

Oct 24 06:10 <mcrha> ahh, I was hoping I will be on that other side ;)

Oct 24 06:11 <mcrha> but we can try, definitely :)

Oct 24 06:11 <srag> Since Im going slow on it, I have asked mbarnes to fill the gap in the pending patches

Oct 24 06:11 <srag> mcrha, sure :)

Oct 24 06:11 <srag> prasad, anything to share with us?

Oct 24 06:11 <mcrha> btw, what's the freeze now?

Oct 24 06:11 <srag> mcrha, on the trunk nothing

Oct 24 06:11 <srag> on the stable branch we still have UI/String/API/ABI

Oct 24 06:11 <mcrha> I see some commit after freeze patches, maybe we can push them now?

Oct 24 06:12 <srag> mcrha, sure to trunk

Oct 24 06:12 <mcrha> ok, I can look for it, if you are ok with it

Oct 24 06:12 <srag> mcrha, that will be awesome

Oct 24 06:12 <mcrha> deal srag :)

Oct 24 06:13 <srag> mcrha, :)

Oct 24 06:13 <srag> psankar, anything to share with us?

Oct 24 06:13 <psankar> Wrote a plugin to use gvim/whatever as Evo composer. Bare-bones version should be in by today.

Oct 24 06:13 <srag> psankar, Wow

Oct 24 06:13 <srag> psankar, I remember hearing this from so many people, so many times.

Oct 24 06:13 <srag> psankar, is your mono plugins work in trunk?

Oct 24 06:14 <srag> psankar, it has to be :)

Oct 24 06:14 <srag> for 2.21.1

Oct 24 06:14 <psankar> srag, some kernel folks complained that they will never use evo. until this is done

Oct 24 06:14 <psankar> srag, so took up that - evo-vi-composer thingy

Oct 24 06:14 <srag> psankar, I think this is really nice.

Oct 24 06:14 <srag> psankar, on the mono plugins front?

Oct 24 06:14 <psankar> srag, mono-plugins is not yet in.... i can add the plyugin-priorities thing alone

Oct 24 06:14 <psankar> *commit*

Oct 24 06:15 <srag> psankar, ah! can you woooork hard to get that in for 2.21.1?

Oct 24 06:15 <psankar> Mono needs a lot of external testing before i commit it.... the patch is there in bugzilla

Oct 24 06:15 <jony> psankar: also the plugin configure tabs .. :)

Oct 24 06:15 <srag> psankar, unless it hits the trunk, the amount of testing you get will be leeeess

Oct 24 06:16 <mcrha> psankar, srag I'm sorry, what's going on with gvim? (we can discuss offline, of course)

Oct 24 06:16 <psankar> jony, patch for configurable-plugins is also done... it is in bugzilla... just needs more testing/commit

Oct 24 06:16 <srag> mcrha, psankar got the support to external editors.

Oct 24 06:16 <srag> you can compose mails in VI and send it from Evolution

Oct 24 06:16 <mcrha> like no html toolbar in composer? :)

Oct 24 06:16 <srag> psankar, right?

Oct 24 06:17 <srag> psankar, commit them if you want more testing

Oct 24 06:17 <jony> psankar: bug# ? :)

Oct 24 06:17 <psankar> mcrha, if u want to send patches inline , evo screws up with its line-width constraints... so some people wanted to send mails via vi

Oct 24 06:17 <mcrha> on cmd line? or in gui?

Oct 24 06:17 <psankar> mcrha, was trying to do that

Oct 24 06:17 <srag> hey pvanhoof

Oct 24 06:18 <srag> pvanhoof, anything to share with us?

Oct 24 06:18 <psankar> mcrha, gui.... it is just for people who dont want to use "pre-format"

Oct 24 06:18 <pvanhoof> No, just following

Oct 24 06:18 <srag> pvanhoof, ok :)

Oct 24 06:18 <srag> schooms, anything to share with us?

Oct 24 06:18 <mcrha> psankar, ok, so I will see when it will be in trunk :)

Oct 24 06:18 <psankar> in composer adn use gvim bcos they have other view constraints applied in their gvim environment

Oct 24 06:18 <schooms> srag: mapi cal backend .. not much to say.. just steady progress.. :)

Oct 24 06:18 <psankar> mcrha, and people wanted key-bindings

Oct 24 06:18 <psankar> mcrha, sure thing :) that'll be ebtter

Oct 24 06:18 <srag> schooms, ok

Oct 24 06:19 <srag> srinidhi|afk, there?

Oct 24 06:19 <jony> srag: u missed luckybharath :)

Oct 24 06:19 *luckybharath is always missed from the list :'(

Oct 24 06:19 <srag> Oops

Oct 24 06:19 <schooms> ;)

Oct 24 06:19 <srag> luckybharath, anything to share with us?

Oct 24 06:20 <luckybharath> srag: working on Pst import. going good. the file formats now match those of the 2003 format files. i'm able to import the contacts and mails from pst files. will look into calendar now

Oct 24 06:20 <srag> luckybharath, coool.

Oct 24 06:20 <luckybharath> srag: the smartcard setup also going good. able to detect certificates on the card

Oct 24 06:20 <srag> when do you think that this can hit trunk?

Oct 24 06:20 <srag> I think this will help a lot of Exchange users

Oct 24 06:20 <luckybharath> maybe 2.21.3

Oct 24 06:21 <luckybharath> will try to finish it by the next release

Oct 24 06:21 <srag> luckybharath, ok. that is great

Oct 24 06:21 <srag> Im working on the MAPI based addressbook thingy and I hope that in another 1 week, the work will be done

Oct 24 06:21 <srag> the branch now has a working code, which can provide you readonly access to the books

Oct 24 06:22 <srag> thatz it over all

Oct 24 06:22 <srag> anything else to discuss?

Oct 24 06:22 <srag> ok. bye every one.
