Description Helge Hess 2005-01-11 03:48:01 UTC

Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

As discussed on KDE-PIM 2005/1 with Reinhold and Cornelius, 
currently the OGo/GroupDAV resource uses a plain list which contains the folders on the server.

This is insufficient because the folder hierarchy can be very deep and cannot be traversed in advanced. Eg in the case of the OGo GroupDAV implementation the hierarchy potentially containes hundreds of projects with each project containing thousands of files exposed via WebDAV.

So: the folder selection MUST be a tree to fit GroupDAV. The children of a folder node MUST be loaded on demand (if the user manually expands an item using the + in the folder tree).

I would like to press this matter. I've just tested the resource against my mini dev installation and the "update list" button takes forever because it scans the full WebDAV hierarchy, including the projects with the contained document trees.

As a result I was required to add some very dirty hack to ZideStore which stops document traversal if the user-agent is Konqueror. The dirty side effect is that you can't use Konqueror anymore for working on documents unless you run two ZideStores (one with the hack on, one with the hack off). So urks.

Please consider fixing that issue ASAP (for 3.4.1?).

Reassigning all KOrganizer bug reports and wishes to the newly created 
korganizer-devel mailing list.

Is anything happening on the GroupDAV front? I am a very fond Opengroupware user, but the KDE integration is really lacking at the moment. I could not find any roadmap on the pim.kde.org site, so is there any news on getting GroupDAV in KDE in a workable state again? At least for KDE 4, if not for 3.x?

Dear reporter, the resources handling got redone for KF5 and KF6 based PIM applications.

If you still encounter the issues you had in the past, please report them to the current maintained and updated PIM applications you use

Thanks a lot!
