Hi prashanth :-) Are you from India? How far have you come with the project? ..... Maybe thats a relevant question for everyone who is getting involved in it. I like to hear if everyone have successed checking out the code from cvs and have build and run it... And if people have started looking into some of the tasks posted to this list. Any comments to the code or the project in general are VERY welcome. Remember, this is yours project too. Here is a little status on what I have been doing the last 1-2 weeks: I have discussed the project structure with Kevin, and consequently checked out the new paths in the cvs. I am happy about this new cvs structure. I have decided to continue my work on the mapi project, and to continue keeping and eye on the mailsomething project, and helping you all getting started. From request from Mike G, I posted some overviews of possible tasks. I have done some work on the mapi project, continuing my redesign of the mailcode and getting an overview of the changes needed. And I have written a bunch of mails to you all and to this maillinglist :-) Now I like to see someone committing some code :-) Stig ----- Original Message ----- From: "Prashanth.P.Rao" <pra...@co...> To: <mai...@li...> Sent: Friday, April 09, 2004 4:47 AM Subject: [Mailsomething-devl] Request to join the project > Hello all, > I'm prashanth.

Hello all, I'm prashanth. I want to join this project. I have worked on a project using Java Swing and JDBC. For 2 years i was working in a company but there was no coding in java but the code involved customizing the filters that was specific to the tool.we were using a tool our customer had provided us to extract data from the web. I am currently learning j2ee using the sun tutorial and j2ee 1.4 sdk But i am working in windows 2000 platform. Currently I don't have a job so i'm willing to devote a lot of time to the project and learn java. i'm willing to learn anything in java. Pls include me in the project. regards, Prashanth |

Hey Mike Fair enough. As I said in another mail to you (and now here if others a wondering) I dont expect people to work on the project every day or lots of time. I dont intend to do that myself. Ofcourse for everyone new there will probably be some startup time before one gets productive (and that is hard for me to estimate since I know the project very well allready). But as I see it, it is the responsibility of the individuel developer to manage how much time he uses on the project. I think as a guide rule, one should try at least to work on it for a couple of hours a week, even those week one dont have time. I will be glad if someone would take the task mike had his eyes on. It is a fairly simple one. The tasklists I have posted to this lists are guiding tasklists. One dont have to work on those, but you can use them as a way of getting started with the project. If one do look at one of the tasks and perhabs commit some code related to it, please notice the others.

Hi Mike I think most use eclipse, though I cannot tell for sure - I know Kevin does, and myself. Eclipse has very good build in cvs use, which makes it a good choice for sourceforge projects. Version 3 which im testing theese days can be setup to automaticly check for updates in cvs. My knowledge of other (java) ide´s aint that great, I have been using eclipse for almost 2 years. Recently I tried ms visual studio for .net, and that was a disappointment to work with, compared to eclipse. Even though another language, some basic stuff like refactoring and more was missing. FOR EVERYONE: I have done some mailaccounts at my host, which everyone can use for testing. They work both as Imap and Pop3 accounts. Host: mail.littlestubborn.com accounts: te...@li... mai...@li... passwords: 'test' (for mailsomething@....) and 'mailsomething' (for test@...) username is the mailaddress. Feel free to use them as you like. I have subscribed both of them to the maillinglist (so there will be some mails in them, your also welcome to subscribe them to all sort of other stuff). Stig ps. littlestubborn.com is my domain, and theres a homepage (my gf´s) at lingyi.littlestubborn.com where u can see pictures etc... if someone should be interested :-) Remember to write the guestbook - she loves that!? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike (mgen)" <mg...@us...> To: "MailSomething-devl" <mai...@li...> Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2004 4:48 AM Subject: [Mailsomething-devl] Mike (mgen) > Hi everyone, > > My name is Mike I live in the US.

Hi Nick and Diogo and everyone else :-) Here is a follow up to yesterdays post from Mike G. about developers in the project: Has 'checked in' at the maillinglist: Mike G, Diogo, Kevin, Nick, (Bogdan). Besides that, I have been in contact with 2-3 others who either intend to 'check in' or who have some problems with the maillinglist. I have removed Usha from his request. The 'retired' developers: sunyang (made the mail account setup wizard) francis bacque (some minor adjustment in mailcode) Kaijian xu (made most of the flashy images :-) I have completely lost contact with sunyang - he dont respond at all. I might remove him from the project. Francis is still 'alive' hehe... But im not sure he is interested in contributing. Kaijian might help with images, havent been in contact with him for some time. I will write a list of people who have contributed to the project (theres also some which now have left the project themself) so they can be included in a contributer list or similar. As to tasks: I have posted a list of possible tasks, and I am writing down some more which I will send soon. Currently only Bogdan has assigned himself for a task - making a mimetype class. Projects: I will continue the mapi project and the mailsomething project shall NOT consider this project until it is redesigned and have a release. That might take ½ a year. Changes to mailcode can be submitted to the mailsomething project and I will make sure they will be included in the mapi project. Code: is placed in cvs tree under 'mailsomething' as the root folder. Ie, theres 2 root folders 'src' and 'mailsomething', the 'src' is the old root and shall be ignored. None-mail functionality: I am still not clear to wether Darren will start a subproject, or if the mailsomething project should keep the new functionality I have initiated. Most of this functionality - notes (in bloggers), tasks, taskslists, calendar... Is only on an initial state, and needs lots of work. I think it would be cool though if someone will continue it (also in the mailsomething project sphere). Stig |

Specifying tasks without lots of details should do in general. I think the details are not that important as it is to get the general idea what has to be completed.

Tasks - In configuration panels, add markers for what is required, ie a little red dot. Like some forms on webpages. - Make the default size bigger. Or dependent on users screensize. - setup the uninstaller to work (the windows installer uses a script for creating the install (dont remember the name right now - the script is in cvs) - Search should have options for showing results in table or in a google web style. This can be added as a settings button/link in the search results which popups a search settings dialog. - Google webstyle needs more integration into rest of guielements, ie, one should be able to move/copy results to a folder, delete, etc. - Addresslist viewer, in the list, where names/addresses are listed, u should be able to search by pressing some keys, ie, pressing t i n a would show any entries starting with tina.... - Formatting of subject, sender, fields when sending mails. See Maildecoder.decodeField. When sending mails we need to do the oposite of what this method is doing. Ie, encoding by the same standard. - The automatic update (for imap) needs to be saved, ie, to save the checked mailboxes. Also other settings for automatic update should be saved. - Theres a bug regarding the user.conf file with usernames pointing to folders, which is read in the Mailsomething class. It seems like it doesnt get written if theres a space in the path to the file. Should be fixed. - It should be possible to choose a user setting folder AFTER the app is started and configured. - I have done some work to save contact info as messages in imap. This is not finished at all. Ie, a contact can be saved as a specific format (which the jpim project implements). - Localization. Louise started it, she created some classes for it, but im not sure how far she came with it. It should be continued and I will suggest that developers with different native languages helps by supplying translations to their own language. - Nntp. Needs lots of work, is not really functional. Furthermore there needs some good gui components for nntp. - A mimetype class (Bogdan has aggreed to work on this, as I understand he will not upload it to cvs (maybe he havent made it work) and will use the source from version 0.47 as a base for his work - this is not a problem, since the class in itself is relatively selfintegrated, when theres a working version we can just refactor those places using the mimetype class.). - A more functional homepage. - A more heavy tasks is a general change to use swt instead of swing. I would like that, but it would require at least a couple involved gui guys. - Junit tests. (not for the mailcode, that will be placed in mapi) There is probably a lot more tasks than this - I will post them when I think of them. I will continue with my work on the mapi. If someone changes some mailcode just commit the code to the mailsomething project, and I will include those changes in the mapi. Stig |

Mike The tasks at the sf project site is not valid. I have never updated those, coz I find that interface very annoying to work with. If someone wants to use that, I will give them access to it. There is some tasks posted at the maillinglist. Unfortunately I cannot be much more specific than that, coz I havent worked with the project for 3-4 months, and then I kinda loose touch with which tasks are necessary and not. I aggree that small and simple tasks are preferable. And usually I try and suggests tasks to new developers. If you want me to dig out some tasks, I would definitely prefer to do it specificly to each developer who wants a task (I mean it is big work to try and write down every little task there is.) As for developers... I got a large number of responses to my post. I have send responses to everyone, but most havent returned back. I will try and send everyone a follow up message, and if those people dont respond within a week I will remove them from the project again. If you guys, Mike, Kevin, Bogdan and more, want me too I can resubmit my post for developers. As I see it, 5-10 interested and involved developers would make a good base. I will try and write down some tasks (not very detailed) and send it soon.

Hi team, Now that the questions about mapi/mailsomething and the CVS structure have been cleared maybe it is time to push the project forwards. There are some tasks in the tasklist but I would like to know which tasks are still active and if their priority is valid. I think it will be easier for most members if there are clear tasks to start from, possibly smaller ones in the beginning. Stig, since you are the one who knows best the project and its real status you are the one to specify what to do from now on. I see there are many members on the project(19?) but we still haven't read anything from most of them (except Bogdan, Stig, Kevin and me, and of course the "retired"). It will be good to know how may people will _actually_ work on this project. Mike ----------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.music.gbg.bg/ - Музика и още нещо ... |

Yes I aggree. Except for the last point. I was looking for developers for the mailsomething project coz I dont have time, either for that or for the mapi project. That is why I suggested that people ignores the mapi project. Right now the mapi project is hypothetical - it have never been functional. On the other hand the mailsomething mail code is functional. I am willing to put some work into both projects, but I also know that it is not possible for me to commit to either project as much as it requires. I will like to work say a couple of hours a week on the mapi project, doing some junit tests for it, and making it functional. But if I am doing this alone I would be fooling myself if I say the time horizont for some release is shorter than at least 3-4 months.

Okay, I am a bit confused now :) Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe this is what need to be done: - Keep the MAPI code as how it is. No coding on it. - Work in the mailsomething project. - Write JUnit tests using the mailsomething code - Stig will make the MAPI code work ______ As for the CVS structure: is it okay if I structure it just like I did the MAPI project? So that the complete structure will look like this: HEAD/ mailsomething/ src/ lib/ .../ src/ net/ sf/ .../ ../ Kevin --- stig <st...@eu...> wrote: > Hey > > I have been looking some more at it.
