Description of problem: could it be possible to add mozilla-calendar and sunbird in fc4 ? i prefer mozilla-calendar and sunbird because i have to work with linux, mac and win. calendar-sharing on a webdav-server works great. afaik evolution, korganizer, ical, ... are not available for all plattforms. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start mozilla 2. go to eg.: webcal://fedora.redhat.com/participate/schedule/fedora-project.ics Actual Results: mozilla has no webcal support, calendar for mozilla installation is needed (xpi) Expected Results: mozilla should have webcal support out of the box
I would vote for this too. And I'd be happy to help test sundird RPMs once they hit RawHide.
Only if it makes it upstream. We're not going to work on this here at Red Hat.
Only if what makes it upstream? I understand that you do not want to include mozilla-calendar before upstream does, but what about sunbird? What does "makes it upstream" mean for it?
Make it into an official release. Right now, it's more of a side project. It still needs r/sr, and isn't close to 1.0.

Is it time to consider this for Fedora Extras? From http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/sunbird.html: Latest News Tuesday, January 11th, 2004: The Sunbird team is proud to announce the second release candidate for the upcoming Sunbird 0.2 release for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. You can find the builds for the different platforms on our download page.

If extras wants this, who am I to argue I suppose? A release candidate for an 0.2 version isn't too exciting to me, especially considering the severe lack of any code review. It is one of the few things in the mozilla source base without superreview, and for a project of its scale, is really needed. As such, I don't take it too seriously. And we already have a calendaring application in fedora (as part of evolution). Just because its a mozilla project doesn't mean its up to snuff just yet. All that is gold does not glitter. At some point, it might be worth reconsidering, but...
i close it. ciao
