Re: BBDB V3 visibility
IMHO, Savannah is much easier to use than SF. The only problem is that the SF page appears to make BBDB look like a dead project. I appears that Robert Widhopf-Fenk is still in cyberspace at http://www.robf.de/.

BBDB V3 visibility
Very impressive with how the development of BBDB V3 is coming along nicely. Great work! However, to anyone not on this list, the existence of the version 3 development is rather well hidden. Most searches lead to the Source Forge page http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/ Which has no mention of V3 or links to the Savannah page. The Savannah page does not even make the first couple of pages of a Google search for BBDB. My I suggest updating the Source Forge page to have information on the new development? -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ ___ bbdb-info@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bbdb-info BBDB Home Page: http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/

However, to anyone not on this list, the existence of the version 3 development is rather well hidden. I think a list of new features would be good thing. As Roland pointed out right from the beginning v3 is incompatible with earlier versions in many aspects, which made me (still) hesitate to upgrade. A list of new features would be very helpful since I cannot see from the mails why I should upgrade.[1] Uwe Brauer Footnotes: [1] to give a trivial example: a gnus introduced imap support that was a very strong reason to upgrade. -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ ___ bbdb-info@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bbdb-info BBDB Home Page: http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/

I do not know who has write access to BBDB's sourceforge repository these days. BBDB's git repository on savannah does include BBDB's history from sourceforge. Currently BBDB v3 does not yet include a proper info manual. Nonetheless, a proper release emphasizing the current status of development of BBDB v3 would be a good thing to increase its visibility (as discussed recently on this list). I am much aiming for this, yet right now I am too busy with other stuff. Roland -- Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
