Status update (25 May)

This time our status update is pretty short, mostly due to ongoing discussions regarding the Sunbird/Lightning roadmap and Sunbird 0.3 planning. So just the following bugs were fixed since the last status update:

  • Bug 239431: Allow choosing multiple exceptions more easily
  • Bug 329225: Moving views should also move minimonth
  • Bug 333372: Week number for multiweek view is off when Sunday is not the start of the week
  • Bug 334076: Agenda tree only shows the events from the calendars in the composite at startup
  • Bug 338311: remove unneeded files from Add-ons Manager migration
  • Bug 338432: Sunbird doesn’t require xpcom_obsolete

Thanks as always to all the testers, hackers, reviewers, etc.

    Claude, your comment has nothing to do with Mozilla’s Calendar. But, for your information the error is not a problem with Mozilla, but a problem with the site you are visiting. The XML is not well formed, just as the error message says. To fix this problem the “&” should be replaced with “&”

    On the PowerPC Mac version, I am unable to add events. When I click on New Task, a very slim line appears at the top of the toolbar as if the new task window is going to drop, but it doesn’t. My arrow turns to a watch and it just sits there staring at me. when I pull down any of the menu items, they’re all grayed out. And it doesn’t quit properly. After quitting I get an error message and it asks whether I’d like to close, reopen or report an issue. So I’m reporting the issue.

    Brian,
    That’s a known bug on all platforms. It’s a regression from new JavaScript 1.7 functionality that landed on the Mozilla trunk, totally outside Sunbird. We’re working with Brendan to try and get that fixed as soon as we can.

    I know you discontinued the calendar extension, but can you pretty please with a cherry make Lightning compatible with Seamonkey Mail & News?

    I noticed on Sunbird 0.3.a.2 for Windows XP Pro, I can no longer “select all” events and export them to a single .ical file to transfer my schedule to another computer. I can select individual events and export them, but not the entire month. This feature is extremely important for me because I use multiple computers.

    Sunbird 0.3a2 has been released for a while now, but the source is still not available. Could it please be made available on ftp?

    I couldn’t find a forum or any place to post a suggestion (and I don’t know how to code) so here it goes: I have Lightning 0.1 with Thunderbird 1.5.0.4. I suggest a button or two on the main toolbar that will clearly and simply switch from “calendar view” to “mailbox view” and back. I know you can do this by clicking on inbox at the right and by clicking on a day on the mini-calendar (or by clicking on one of the buttons that can be added to the toolbar, like “day view”, “week view”, “month view”, etc.) but I believe it would facilitate navigation, and allow for a more fluid integration.

    I noticed in Lightening that anytime I try to save an appointment that contains parens in the description, it won’t save.

    You promised now you will be encouraging translations/localizations again, but there is no signal about this really happening …

    miles:
    I am currently working on getting the en-US locale for Sunbird moved into the appropriate place, and I’ll then be moving the other locales into the /l10n repository (where Firefox and Thunderbird’s localizations now live).
    Once I get that move completed by mozilla IT staff, we’ll be on our way.

    I have Lightning 0.1 with Thunderbird 1.5.0.4. and have the contacts sidebar extension for TBird. It would be great if there was a way to change the order of display btwn the calendar and the contacts. I don’t need the calendar to top-most all the time but do use the contacts almost constantly. Thanks for the great app.
