Re: Hermes Thread: questions, suggestions regarding Facebook, Twitter, etc. contact synchronization
 

I see I see, however, its great to see this wonderful app develop and supporting more data sources. Escpecially that Xing is still on your future feature list (hopefully ;-) ).

Two question though:
Is it possible to prioritize between data sources for updates?
E. g. can I choose wether the picture should be taken from Facebook or LinkedIn?

Do you plan to retrieve more contact details in the future?

Not yet in the UI. Currently it's hardcoded in /opt/hermes/lib/main.py.

Aim to extract everything useful from a service. Photo (duh), URLs, birthday (where possible) and - soon - LinkedIn will give us the ability to pull phone numbers and email addresses. Plaxo will too, of course.

That would be a nice feature!

Please add Orkut support.I use orkut more than facebook

Re: Hermes Thread: questions, suggestions regarding Facebook, Twitter, etc. contact synchronization
 

I'm sure there is an enhancement request somewhere. It probably just needs votes

i do have a small issue, as i try to update, it just hanged at "creating contact" but for 1-2hours.. it just hanged there. i try searching in this topic.. but cant find anyone having this problem.

Re: Hermes Thread: questions, suggestions regarding Facebook, Twitter, etc. contact synchronization
 

those who need orkut support, vote for the bug/feature request at
https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8224

I believe that is the fastest way. My vote is for orkut support.

Re: Hermes Thread: questions, suggestions regarding Facebook, Twitter, etc. contact synchronization
 

v0.8.3 is in Extras-devel now for those who want to really be on the alpha-bleeding edge.

New features

• Add support for URLs and birthdays from LinkedIn.
• Add support for phone numbers from services which support them, like LinkedIn. (This is a very cool feature, even if I do say so myself. An enhancement for creating contacts from LinkedIn is planned)

Bugs fixed:

• Fixes the Twitter "list.remove(x)" bug encountered by some users.
• Fixes the missing import for dealing with Twitter brokenness.

Re: Hermes Thread: questions, suggestions regarding Facebook, Twitter, etc. contact synchronization
 

Hi,
Having a new problem with Hermes and Facebook.
Hermes no longer updates the picture for one of my contact even after retrieving and refreshing.

I tried the following:
deauthorized/reauthorized Hermes
deleted and re-added contact

Currently retrieving does not match this contact with corresponding facebook contact. In fact, when trying to manually match contact I cant even find that person on the facebook list of friends.

Any insight or help into this would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Can you raise a bug containing an exported vCard of the contact you want to match, and some details as to how their name appears in Facebook?

Thanks in advance.
