Chandler Wiki : Why Not Zodb - 0 views

  • data model to be independant of any language in particular
  • queries, interactions with RDF, bi-directional referential integrity, access control, garbage collection, etc.
  • replication, remote access, shared access, threaded transaction model, etc.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • started a data model implementation from scratch and persisted it using Sleepycat's Berkeley dbxml and Berkeley db
  • Chandler repository is not really so much an object database as an item database combined with large collections of references directly stored in Berkeley DB
  • a somewhat steeper learning curve for programmers expecting a real object database like ZODB. My hope is that this trade-off is well worth the gains

Chandler Wiki : FAQ - 0 views

  • Q Can I use Chandler for Email?
  • For Preview
    • Graham Perrin
       
      This paragraph, at least these words, should be updated with respect to 1.0.2.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      Re http://www.diigo.com/annotated/d62b6b8ed21cf763e92d3b3b6a88f86a the expression 'Preview' was in use around April 2007.

      … and uses IMAP, but does not place sent messages in the Sent mailbox of the IMAP server.
  • sent from other Chandler users
    • Graham Perrin
       
      This fundamental point should be HIGHLIGHTED (not diminished in parentheses).
  • downloads messages via 3 IMAP folders
    • Graham Perrin
       
      I see evidence of Chandler 1.0.2 working with POP, though I don't use it in that way.
  • Add messages from your email client into special Chandler IMAP folders
    • Graham Perrin
       
      Messages moved by your IMAP client to Chandler Desktop-specific mailboxes
  • to download them into Chandler where you can manage them as Chandler notes and events
    • Graham Perrin
       
      … will be copied by Chandler Desktop whenever you sync Chandler Desktop.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      Subsequent management within Chandler Desktop will not be communicated back to the IMAP server.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      After a message has been copied by Chandler Desktop, then in your IMAP client you may wish to archive (or set aside) the earlier copy, to avoid confusion.
  • What still needs to be done
  • Sync IMAP Flags and Read/Unread status
  • Unlike "regular" email, you can edit and re-send Chandler emails
  • current target screen size - 1024x768 pixels

Chandler Get Started Guide - Chapter 2: Setting Up Accounts - Email Accounts - 0 views

  • drag and drop the email messages that you want to import into Chandler into one of the folders
  • file incoming email into one of those folders
  • Depending on which Chandler folder the email is in, when it gets retrieved and imported as a Chandler item, it will be stamped as a calendar event, email message, or task
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Every time Chandler syncs with the email server
  • it checks for any new messages in one of the Chandler folders
  • even though it remains in the folder it is only imported once into Chandler
    • Graham Perrin
       
      So: does Chandler Desktop use IMAP message IDs to determine whether a message has been previously copied?

      Placement of the list of clients beneath this heading will confuse readers; they may imagine that what's presented below are means of signing up for Chandler Hub.

  • Collections you've subscribed to
    • Graham Perrin
       
      We should be more explicit about subscriptions. I guess that this statement refers to your Chandler Desktop subscriptions to the Chandler collections of other users of Chandler.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      Consider: some users of Apple iCal perceived collections long before Chandler introduced the expression.

      Consider: users of Apple iCal were familiar with subscriptions long before Chandler Desktop introduced the expression.

  • Collaborate on Notes and Events over Email
    • Graham Perrin
       
      IMHO the e-mail capabilities of Chandler 1.0.2 require special explanation. Some explanations are offered within the FAQ, http://www.diigo.com/annotated/faf93764c6f6f5eb9a29268ad4b472de
    • Graham Perrin
       
      The number and nature of the special explanations, criteria and limitations of e-mail in Chandler Desktop make me think that 'Email' its sub-headings, as currently presented in 'Get Started', should not appear in Get Started.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      I suggest leaving references, from the Get Started page, to pages that are dedicated to: (1) an overview of e-mail in Chandler Hub and Chandler Desktop, and of limited communications with IMAP and POP servers; (2) using Chandler Desktop to configure an IMAP server, and understanding the workflows (in particular, the aspects that are one-way, periodic (Chandler Desktop sync) and incremental (the effect of adding messages to a Chandler-specific mailbox that was previously synced)); (3) e-mail in Chandler Hub; (4) e-mail in Chandler Deskop.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      Critically: the overview should contain no instructions on use; it should present, in pictures and in few words as possible, the current workflow and vision, plus maybe no more than one vision of the future.

      This is a 'Getting Started Guide'. Keep it positive :) Talk of problems, behavioural patterns and visions should be elsewhere (the wiki is fine); simply refer from the Guide to the wiki.

      Comments such as this belong in 'What's new' flyers, or in release notes. People who are truly using this Guide to get started are unlikely to have an interest in project history or design changes.

  • too much copying and pasting
