Well, I'd like to know the rationale behind the use of a forked version.
As far as I know, there was mention on these lists that we were already
eying a modified version of EDS ... one that's designed specifically for
use in embedded platforms (lower memory usage and performance) as well
as offering interfaces via D-Bus (another, it seems, preferred OpenMoko
subsystem). The project is called Embedded Evolution Data Server
<http://projects.o-hand.com/eds>.
The thread started here:
http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/openmoko-devel/2007-January/000073.html
Does that make it three versions of EDS we're talking about (the Novell
original, Philip van Hoof's and EEDS)? Or is Phillip's and EEDS the
same?
People who're interested in tinymail should really follow Phillip's blog
<http://pvanhoof.be/blog/>. I've been reading his posts via
http://planet.gnome.org/ for some time now.
