Grinning

Wednesday, September 5th, 2007

I know, it’s not nice to mock others. But GNOME’s 2.20 draft release notes just made me laugh a little bit :)

Notification icon - Trayicon since March 2003, plus the Notification plugin since March 2006
Missing attachment warning - Since Attachwarner, November 2006
“Magic Space Bar” - ! … Since the start of the project :)
Sort by [...]

three point zero!

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

We reached 3.0 today :)
GPL3, tags, some little new features (like LDAP write-support for attributes), speed optimisations, lots of improvements for the Maemo platforms, important fixes for Windows, and much more…

Try it :)

Time passes too fast

A few rapid things :)

10 days ago I’ve been to Anne and Erwan’s wedding. Long trip, but great time, I was happy to share this moment with them and to meet half of #mandrivafr in the process :-)
last week, holidays at Clo’s parents’ new place, where I helped her father with his move. Lots of [...]

Cool stuff

Thursday, March 22nd, 2007

Xfce’s bug 2712 has been marked RESOLVED/FIXED. This Enhancement bug had been opened by me, the goal was to have Orage, the Xfce clock & calendar, able to “subscribe” to other ical files. Now that it’s done, and in a very nice way, it means that future versions of Orage will display Claws Mail’s events [...]

Xubuntu’s default email client

Friday, February 2nd, 2007

I’ve recently been dragged into a sterile discussion about Xubuntu’s default email client, which is currently Thunderbird. Apparently, some people would prefer to have Claws Mail instead, as it’s more lightweight.
Feature-wise, Claws Mail has, in my opinion, nothing to envy to Thunderbird. However, from this discussion, which took place both on Xubuntu’s forum and mailing-list, [...]

The Sylpheed-Claws meeting!

Tuesday, October 17th, 2006

The Sylpheed-Claws meeting finally happened this week-end! It’s been really nice to meet these people I work with since such a long time, and to put faces on names. It wasn’t a technical meeting at all, these ones can be done via email or IRC, just a meeting involving food, drinks and chatting; but we’ve [...]

When did you start using Sylpheed-Claws?

Monday, October 9th, 2006

Quick poll :)
I discovered Sylpheed then Sylpheed-Claws in December 2001. Started with Sylpheed version 0.6.6 (GTK+ 1.2.10; ), then after one month and two patches integrated in -Claws, switched to Sylpheed version 0.7.0claws (GTK+ 1.2.10; i686-pc-linux-gnu).
Didn’t look back since then…
What about you? (use an extended search in your sent folder, like:
header “X-Mailer” matchcase “sylpheed”

Sylpheed-Claws 2.5.0, 2.5.1 and 2.5.2

Tuesday, September 26th, 2006

Finally, we released Sylpheed-Claws 2.5.0, with nice new features like a Bogofilter plugin, quotes folding, per-account filtering on so on…
But bad luck, the evening after the release, we learn that the Bogofilter has a bug that duplicates messages. Given it’s annoying enough, Paul does 2.5.1, and releases that this morning…
But bad luck, hours after the [...]
