Re: [Fosdem-maemo-devel] FOSDEM Schedule Application for Maemo

[Bezprozvanny A. <ale...@ix...>]

Hi,

I agree with Alexey: "trust the XML". The list in Wiki/Sourceforge page is just an indicative description, nothing more.
Also it is a good idea to contact FOSDEM organizers to get the actual list of FOSDEM 2010 events, which shall be ready by now.

I am not sure if the contact information of the relevant FOSDEM person is available on project page, so I repeat it here:
Christophe Vandeplas <chr...@va...> 

BR,
Sasha

Hi,

I'd say trust the XML. Sasha, what do you think? I do not know the source of information in confluence. Do you really need to know the list, cannot you just parse XML?

Regarding syncing of XML with the server: I think we can put it in the user stories. It's not so hard to implement, I think.

Hi Alexey,



1. we have one question: Where we can find activities ?



>From https://confluence.ixonos.local/display/TLCFREE/FOSDEM+Schedule+Application+for+Maemo

ACTIVITIES are:

    *  Keynotes

    * Main Track Talks (in several categories)

    * Devrooms

    * Distribution miniconfs

    * Lightning Talks

    * Stands



But from parsed schedule.en.xml we found two candidates(but no one is the same like they are in confluence):

<types>:

"Lightning-Talk"

"Meeting"

"Other"

"Podium"

"Workshop"



<tracks>:

"Ada"

"BSD+PostgreSQL"

"Collaboration"

"CrossDesktop"

"Debian"

"Development and Languages"

"Distributions"

"Drupal"

"Embedded"

"Fedora+CentOS"

"Free Java"

"GNOME"

"GNUstep+OpenGroupware+Etoile"

"Jabber+XMPP"

"KDE"

"Kernel"

"Keynotes"

"LPI Certification"

"Lightning Talks"

"Mozilla"

"MySQL"

"Open Source Initiative"

"OpenOffice.org"

"Ruby and Rails"

"Security"

"Systems"

"X.org"

"openSUSE"





2. Comments about user stories from Alexander:



o   I'd like to see all events for current day (default: current time) <-- Do we show events in the past (today, but earlier than 'now()'?

                We plannig to have here just events from 'now()'.



o   I'd like to see all events for other days <-- All days? Selected days?

                Here we are plannig to have at the top of the view 'arrows' like calendars used to have, through the arrows you can move to previous/next day



o   I'd like to be noticed when some of my favorite events are overlapping <--- only while displaying events? How about when adding an event to Favorits?

                Good comment, seems that we forgot for it. It will be a nice to have some kind of "information note" that events are overlapping immediately after user will add something to favorites.



* How about online syncing with the server (if the XML was updated)?

                o   I'd like to have option to update list of events through the web <- Isn't it enought ?

                At the confluence there was written that features that application shoud have are all OFF-LINE.
