Description Mieszko Ślusarczyk 2011-01-21 12:02:33 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

S60remote (http://series60-remote.sourceforge.net) is application, that can connect to some symbian phones, while gammu does not (yet) (properly) support them. Please consider adding it as a new engine;)

Reproducible: Didn't try

First of all, thank you for your feedback and for pointing me to that project I was not aware of. It seems pretty interesting. Concerning Kmobiletools (KMT), I currently am alone on the project and could not get new developers to join the team. However, my time too is very limited and I am currently focusing on OpenSync and my master thesis. Both are taking a lot of time and as long as I have no support for KMT I will not actively develop it.

What I suggest:
1) put series60-engine on the TODO list. Even if it is quite easy to write a new engine, KMT still is not mature to handle all the features (even the Adressbook is not fully working).
2) invite you to join and have a look at the KMT sources, it is a lot of fun, I guarantee!
3) maybe consider to code a opensync plugin. I am currently doing my first plugin experiences with gnokii and gammu...

Don't hesitate to contact me by email!

Kind regards,
Quentin

I'd be really glad to help, but I haven't even learned c++ basics (yet):/

For an OpenSync plugin you would only need some Python basics! ;)

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been
unmaintained for many years and I will be closing this bug.
