Hydrogen 1.0 released
Hydrogen is onboard today. Hydrogen is the Evolution connector for Sun Java Enterprise System Calendar Server (SJESCS). It enables Evolution to use SJESCS as a calendar backend. Hydrogen supports SJESCS 5.1 and above. It supports the WCAP (Web Calendar Access Protocol) 2.0 and 3.0 protocols. Hydrogen works with Evolution 1.4. Next step is to make it work with Evolution trunk. The CVS base is in the GNOME project CVS base at cvs.gnome.org. The module name is 'hydrogen'. See http://developer.gnome.org/tools/cvs.html. This product is available under the terms of the GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE, and a copy of it should be found in the source under the COPYING file. This work is sponsored by Sun Microsystems. Enjoy and have fun. ------------------------------------------ Henry Jia Sun China Engineering & Research Institute ------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ gnome-announce-list mailing list gnome-announce-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-announce-list (Log in to post comments)
Hydrogen 1.0 released Posted Jun 21, 2004 14:57 UTC (Mon) by cook (editor, #4) [Link] This project has a name space collision with the Hydrogen drum machine.
Hydrogen 1.0 released Posted Jun 21, 2004 15:12 UTC (Mon) by ChrisMetzler (guest, #18497) [Link] Yep. When I saw the headline, I thought "oh! Hydrogen (the drum machine)has a new version, cool!" For me, not only does this project duplicate a name, but it duplicates the name of something with which I'm much more familiar.
Hydrogen 1.0 released Posted Jun 21, 2004 15:35 UTC (Mon) by Carl (guest, #824) [Link] It also references this "Java" thing again. 'Sun Java Enterprise System Calendar Server (SJESCS)' which hasn't anything to do with java the language, java the virtual machine byte code or java the object oriented libraries. But of course neither SJECS or Hydrogen is written in or uses any "java component". Duh.
Name collision Posted Jun 22, 2004 12:29 UTC (Tue) by corbet (editor, #1) [Link] FWIW, I exchanged a note with the author; he sees the problem and is out shopping for a new name.
Hydrogen 1.0 released Posted Jun 23, 2004 4:43 UTC (Wed) by henryjia (guest, #22514) [Link] Thanks to Corbet & Comix for notifying me. I'm now looking for a solution for this. Will let you know in time.
Re: Hydrogen 1.0 released Posted Jun 30, 2004 10:18 UTC (Wed) by henryjia (guest, #22514) [Link] Thanks, all guys.The project name of 'Hydrogen', the Evolution connector for Sun Java Enterprise System Calendar Server (SJESCS) has been changed to 'evolution-jescs'. Cheers.
Hydrogen 1.0 released Posted Jun 21, 2004 17:08 UTC (Mon) by akumria (subscriber, #7773) [Link] Despite the name-space collision, this is pretty cool. Now Evolution can talk with Sun calendar server (SJESCS), Novell GroupWise and Microsoft Exchange.No doubt there are internal IBM Lotus Notes and Oracle calendar server connectors just about ready. This makes Evolution able to talk to almost everything (except IETF calsch servers) and even easier to get into an 'enterprise'. An even better outcome would be if this inspired some Free Software people to write a calsch server. Then your transation sceanario is even simpler. First convert to Evolution and use proprietary back-end. Then switch to Free Software backend.
Indeed vaporware :-) Posted Jun 22, 2004 0:53 UTC (Tue) by proski (subscriber, #104) [Link] $ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome co hydrogen cvs server: cannot find module `hydrogen' - ignored cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot expand modules
Hydrogen 1.0 released Posted Jun 21, 2004 21:42 UTC (Mon) by petegn (guest, #847) [Link] yes i was just about to say the same thing this project has a problem Hydrogen is an Drum Machine Synth and has been for a while now think again/rename ..folks . pete
SJESCS is a googlewhack Posted Jun 22, 2004 20:45 UTC (Tue) by bronson (subscriber, #4806) [Link] Does SJESCS even exist? A Google search returns a single unrelated link. I'm trying to find a good centralized ical server for my Evolution users, but haven't found anything suitable yet...(OK, fine a true whack has two words, but this is rare enough).
