Zimbra 4.5.6 Open Source Synchronization - It works now !

[Costa-101]

He will come round I am sure.

I mean what more can he possibly want - other than a free license for network edition and mobile?

Then again what is the point of developing a mobile solution if if all he wants is a free mobile license??


Surely though he is not the only one who can achieve this ?

Lets leave him to it and work together to develop and share a mobile solution for the open source edition.

OMG!
This is exactly what I have been feeling lately.
FYI, I'm a Linux consultant and my whole work is based on Googling, Mailing list, reading PDFs, and Internet forum like this.

The impression I've got after all this years working in the opensource community is this:
If it's simple and/or partial, SURE. There are tons of tutorial out there. Setting up standalone PDC, standalone Mail, standalone LDAP, etc.

But, if things come to be a bit complex (read: making money) such as Zimbra + PDC + Replication + BDC, then the number of tutorial that can be found decreases significantly, the same to the number of people who is willing to share/help.

In an opensource project IRC channel, one of the channel senior member asked me this "are you getting paid for all this research?" And when I said yes, he stopped answering any questions I asked in the channel.

Is it wrong if people making money out of opensource project? I know the developers have been working so hard, and I respect that. I even donated to some of opensource projects such as the BOT for IPCop out of my own pocket (not from company's money, FYI, I'm just an employee).

In my opinion, this is BAD SIGN. Either for the project itself or the opensource community as a whole. Ubuntu community is the few remaining communities that is still very helpful and shareful.

Sorry for my rant.. I guess I'm getting too stressful in this

The last news from the french forum is that Edouard is teaming up with another company (one of the french HSPs) in order to release a howto.

We're asked to wait a few week...

Hello

I hoped i could speak in my own name !!! but it seems to be not possible.

I've just said, i'm tired (after 3 weeks of work each evenings between 9pm and 3 am on this project) to make an how to, today for tomorrow !!

I've never say i want to sell the product !! So please don't conclude as this. I will make the tuto, but please be patient and understand me.

The persons who have already code something will understand my position.

The others, who are already please stop it. I will be better for all of us.

I hope i'm clear.
Thanks
Edouard

A SyncML capability for Zimbra CE would be fantastic!

I am curious if this project is still active or if it has been pulled?

[doud]

It's still active.
Don't worry.

Hi Edouard. I'm just curious what the status on this project is. It sounds like you are to be commended for all of your hard work, and I'd love to see it!

[SpEnTBoY]

Ok so has there been any updates? I'm looking at getting this all working now but we really need some kind of kick in the right direction so we can all test as well

I've got 3 days until my new Motorola Q shows up and would love sync capabilities!! lol

Any new news??

Doud-
Woah. If you're trying to sell something, I might have to close this thread.

Many admins may not be conforitable allowing someone else to install a program on their server. As a matter of fact, unless the users know you, I'd recommend against it.

Also, did you write code? If so, you may wish to tell people under which license you're releasing it. . if at all.

I'm sensing some bad karma.
