i see your point but .. i dont completely agree
If i sync then for me thats a backup. Now lets assume that i somehow loose all the data on the N900 then i want to sync back and everything should be as it was.. I am merging contacts for days now over gsm/googletak/skype and msn... I really dont want to do that anymore... So it doesnt have to sync certain fields but it should know the connection...

But maybe i misunderstood and is a sync to something external not a backup..

Than this is a bug in our stuff. I would be more than happy if the guy can send me the logs of the connection. The best way to do it is to use maemo bugzilla: https://bugs.maemo.org/ I will be happy to have a bug there, track it and fix it.

Therefore
he is lying (very doubtful)
he is telling the trut
His provider has not got exchange setup correctly (very doubtful)
Or the n900 does not support exchange 2007 fully.
Simpler. Most probably, N900 MfE has a bug. Most realistic case. Yes, Don Knuth is not a member of our team and (more important) we didn't have the same time to develop MfE as he had to develop TeX and MetaPost. And we have to communicate with the server which is not under our control, by the way.

Can someone at nokia or an owner please provide this info, surely there must be someone out here who uses this thing for business???
Pls, file a bug in bugzilla, put me in cc or inform me about the bug id in any other way (including private message). We will investigate the issue and fix it in one way or the other.

Stop attacking developers and understand that you should complain to managers. Things are more complicated when it comes to cooperates.
If I was a Nokia developer, attacking Nokia developers is exactly the behaviour that would make me stop spending time to talk to the maemo.org community here.

Maemo way is to wait that Application Manager tells that there is update available, you click install and that's it.

Flashing tools and NSU are just alternative and much harder way to do update firmware.

When was the event in that photo?

If it was a long time ago, who knows if it's still valid. It could be pushed back.

Why do the NSU update vitaly? Isn't this way better?

But there is one project which is very close to this target:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TeX


The number of digits after the dot sign in its version number is equal to the number of bugs found during its lifetime.

So, the fun starts:

$ tex --version
TeX 3.1415926

Count it yourself :-)

Unfortunately, it is near to impossible to reach this target in the modern industrial software engineering. But all the sw. engineers shall not forget about this real example :-)

Yes. And the link I have posted tells about SSU as well.

No. I have posted a link which describes all the alternatives.
SSU is how the typical Maemo user does it.
