Hi, Just a quick note about the time of the next meeting - if it was decided to allow GMT+10 folks like me attend more easily: next Thursday night I'm going to a Karnivool concert at the Triffid so I won't be able to attend the SFOS OSCCM. Sorry for the hassle! Cheers, Chris. ___

My experiences with donations: Many talk about but only really few do really donate. But this few mostly donates more as I would charge for selling the app. For example, I had ocNews as paid app in the Ovi Store for Meego and I think it was in a price range of 1,99€ for Germany (other countries

I'm missing how your contacts can be linked as a graph on your phone. I assumed it was about which of your friends know each other, but that isn't relevant information on the client side. I don't think it's even easily available in the main social networks. Andy On 02/06/2016 2:34pm, Tone Kas

On the RDBMS vs Graph DB's discussion, the point Peter is making is a very solid one; the purpouse of the contacts app is to mange contacts; hence how they are connected; if relying on a Graph DB provides a simpler implementation (in terms of raw lines of code I mean) in upper implementation levels

Hi! RDBMSes are not very good at graphs, or trees, or any other data structure that requires variable traversal steps in queries. I don't think we have that here though. Those social networks only have graphs when they're integrating your data with other people's, but personally you just have

Well SQL is in my opinion good for grouping or conduct calculations on transactional data. Updating, or adding / sorting is not is best discipline. It is medicore in my opinion. On small sets of data as used in phones medicore performance is still quick. Phones are quite powerfull today. However

Hi Peter, All of this is just my opinion, and not necessarily representative of the views of Jolla. The reason is that SQL is simple, maintainable, and performant. Yes, there are some edges which need to be handled carefully, but in general, sqlite is the perfect solution for this type of data.

Hi Tone, There is an intermediate stage (using an mkcal-backed QtOrganizer engine, to provide read/write access to the mkcal backend data via QtOrganizer apis) which wouldn't require any changes to the jolla-calendar application (or the various sync adaptors we have currently). But if we event

I would actually like to know why SQL stuff. Datastructure types I am think of on the Phone are relationships (Facebook style) or transactional. And both are not ideal to solve with relational dbs. I guess the Answer is because every one does it. But that is not really satisfactory. Would there b

Hi Chris; >2) API to access Calendar data. Correct, currently we don't provide access to calendar API in Harbour. The reason is that we want to use QtOrganizer as the public API, but to do that we need to write a QtOrganizer engine backend >for mkcal (note that one already existed in QtMobility
