    This is good news for all of us waiting for decent free calendaring software. Are you going to download Sunbird and put a reminder in it to "continue waiting for decent free calendaring software"? ;-D

    Okay, so the Lizard is split into Firefox, Thunderbird, and Sunbird. With XUL, you can write applications that run on Mozilla. It does about everything but play games and work as an office suite. So when are we going to see Mozilla integrated in with OpenOffice and the two together turned into MOS (Mozilla OS)?

      EMACS?

      Isn't that some kind of vi clone? (he said as he hid under the table, cowering in fear...)

    I've never needed the use of a wall callendar, let alone an app that runs on my PC. I'll stick to writing everything down on my arm, thanks.

    From the above linked Sunbird page;

    Tuesday, February 4th, 2005: The Sunbird team is proud to announce its first official release: Sunbird 0.2 for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. You can find builds for the different platforms on our download page.

    Maybe the day-of-the-week problem will be fixed in 0.3;-)

    You assume we all run some form of Unix.


    Ok, so there's also planner-mode in emacs, which works just fine under unix, windows, and probably whatever platform you fancy.

    You'd think a site for a calendar app would be able to get it's own release date correct...

    otherwise, it's a neat app

  9. Another impending naming debacle? by Eil · · Score: 3, Funny


    Had to chuckle when reading this on the main page:

    At the moment the "Sunbird" name is a project name. It is not official and may change in the future.

    At least they got that out of the way from the get-go.

    I do my tasks in a wiki, as ascii text.

    Where's this wiki? I've got some stuff I need you to do.
