Re: ChangeLog 2010-12-15
Roland, thank you for your work. I'd like to package your version of BBDB as `bbdb3' and put it in the Emacs GNU ELPA package repository. I'd like to call it `bbdb3' because your version is pretty different from BBDB 2.x and thus users will expect those changes when they install it. Would all of that be OK with you? I'll use the http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/bbdb CVS repository and synchronize from it daily; the GNU ELPA repo lives at bzr://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/emacs/elpa/ Thanks Ted -- Lotusphere 2011 Register now for Lotusphere 2011 and learn how to connect the dots, take your collaborative environment to the next level, and enter the era of Social Business. http://p.sf.net/sfu/lotusphere-d2d ___ bbdb-info@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bbdb-info BBDB Home Page: http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/

I've seen ELPA but have not yet found the time to look at it in more detail. But I am confident that putting the new BBDB there will be fine. I assume that when you call the new BBDB on ELPA bbdb3, this does not require to rename the code itself. (If necessary, I could do that, too. But then I'd prefer a name that does not have a version number built-in.) I'll use the http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/bbdb CVS repository and synchronize from it daily; the GNU ELPA repo lives at bzr://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/emacs/elpa/ That would be perfect. At present, I consider the new BBDB in an alpha phase. It works pretty well for me and I believe that others have started to use it, too. But there are still some rough edges that I want to remove. So synchronizing bbdb3 on ELPA with the CVS repository of BBDB on savannah would be a good solution.

I am not sure I understand what you mean. Are you using the new BBDB for the first time? The format of the database has changed. So if you load your old database into the new BBDB, the database is reformated. But this should happen only once. Afterwards, BBDB should be marked as modified only if you did change something. (That's what happens to me.)
