[maemo-developers] [GSoC 09] - Remember The Milk plugin for Canola - report 1

[From: Andrey Popelo]

Hello all,

This is a first report for "Remember The Milk plugin for Canola" GSoC
09 project.

In previous two weeks I was studying Canola source code and started
with creating a simple skeleton of a plugin. I talked with my mentor
and we decided to move forward iteratively: at first create an app
which just works with network connection and shows tasks using
standard ui elements. Then add local tasks storing functionality,
syncronization and new ui elements.

After two weeks of work we already have a plugin which allows to
browse tasks for today and tomorrow, browse lists and tasks inside
lists and search for tasks. I recorded a small video[1] (~30 sec)
which shows how it works.

Source code available at code.openbossa.org[2], installation
instructions available on a wiki page[3].

Plan for the next week:
 * improve current plugin - add ability to view task properties and
create new tasks, so we will have something a bit usable already
 * start implementing local tasks storing functionality

Regards,
Andrey
