Re: [Announce] Gene Cash's to_do and calend PIM programs for OS 2008
 

from all those PIMs, i've tried on my n800, these seem to have the most potential.
i would recommend contacting gene cash and move the project to community development, using maemo.org infrastructure. of course, it would be headed by gene cash, or by whomever he decides (rbrewer123).

what do you think?

Good idea. I'll write him an email.

This bug is specific for non-english (non-roman) localization. Week days are shown in current tablet language and Calend does not understand them. When trying to save a recurring weekly event, it raises an error (as shown in log) :
Expected weekday abbreviation, got: в .

Has anybody else noticed the Calend application automatically opening at 12:00 midnight? It has done it on my n800 the past two nights...

Re: [Announce] Gene Cash's to_do and calend PIM programs for OS 2008
 

Yes... it schedules itself to wake up at midnight and do a little housekeeping, like sending the next day's todo's to the todo manager. Would be nice if it closed itself after doing that.

I don't think anyone has said they've gotten Google calendar ical files imported. Has anyone?

Thank you,

You can remove it from your list. You're right, that's how it's working. I had to wait to see if that happened, and it did. I like it.

Tonight I'm leaving the dirty dishes when I go to sleep, just to see how complete that program is.

I don't think it matters that it stays open. It means when you look at your NIT in the morning, it's harder to escape (or forget) your to-do's. And it ain't that hard to close it.

Thanks for the clear bug report. I've gotten my iCalendar files from Evolution imported. Looks like there are still more import problems though.

Re: [Announce] Gene Cash's to_do and calend PIM programs for OS 2008
 

Exactly. I thought this was the expected behavior, since it is nice to have your to-do's in front of you when you pick your NIT in the morning.

Diverse iCalendar files for import would be helpful. If anyone who uses various calendar programs could export some example iCalendar files and post them that would be helpful. For example, Google Calendar users could create a simple calendar and add some one-time events, repeating events, and todo events (if Google does that, I don't use it). Same for Outlook, Yahoo, etc.

I already have some Evolution and gpesyncd output. Unfortunately gpesyncd is generating some things that don't conform to the spec so I'll leave it to others to either work around that or fix gpesyncd. One workaround might be to use Erminig to sync to google and then take the iCalendar file from google.
