Sorry, by baseline I meant what version of GC Dialer were you using so I could do performance comparisons on my machine.

So is using the default version of python the only requirement for python-launcher? What version of python is it? so I can be sure to not use too new of features.

The solution I found was to get rid of "Dialer - " in any calls to self._window.set_title (there were two I found, and it's actually "%s - " and self.__pretty_app_name__). Everything seems to be working great now. Good work on everything!

So I'm guessing Hildon automatically combines gtk.set_app_name with self._window.set_title. *sigh* wish the documentation was better, especially for Python.

I also changed it from python2.5 to python, so hopefully that works. Like I always say, this would be a lot easier if I had a working SDK to test against.

/usr/bin/python (and python launcher) will always link to whatever version of python the user has installed. So, if you make the deb require a certain version of python, that will be enough.

And yeah, sometimes the documentation seems to be sketchy at best... Trial and error is always fun though ;-)

Where did you get this information from?

GrandCentral has not ended its beta phase officially. Well, at least the google version of what beta means....

Any news or announcements regarding the service will be posted in their discussion group:

http://groups.google.com/group/grand...-alerts/topics

Unless someone is in contact directly with the support team or one of the developers, nobody can assume there is a change on the horizon.

The first cut of Evolution contact support for GC Dialer has been developed, tested (on the desktop), and is available (through subversion).

Notes:
* This has not yet been tested on tablets to see if it breaks anything or how well it accesses tablet contacts if at all.
* The default address book is "None"
* You choose evolution address books separately
* You change address books through "Edit"->"Settings", select your new address book, and hit apply
* The GUI is not in its final form, it was just my first thought. What I think I'll do is just put a combo box on the contacts tab to select on the spot the address book.

Re: Grandcentral Dialer
 
I'm hoping we might make a release soon after some further cleanups but as of right now you have to checkout the trunk from subversion
https://garage.maemo.org/scm/?group_id=657

If on a machine with make, you can then just type any of
make package PLATFORM=desktop
make package PLATFORM=os2007
make package PLATFORM=os2008
to have an unofficial deb package. If you do not have make, you can just copy the source folder and run it manually from the command prompt.

OK ... PM me for access to 0.8.0. This will tentatively be going into Diablo Extras assuming there are no major issues. It will have the new name DialCentral and has a signifigant number of upgraded items.
