[03:12] <Chloric> evening guys
[03:12] <Chloric> sorry, doubles
[18:47] <zoopster> awfully quiet out in the florida ubuntu land....
[18:52] <mhall119> hiya zoopster 
[18:52] <zoopster> heya mhall119
[18:53] <mhall119> what's happening?
[18:58] <zoopster> heh...lots of things...much needed rain and all kinds of busy work crap!
[18:58] <zoopster> you?
[19:00] <mhall119> working hard
[19:00] <mhall119> getting settled in very well though
[19:21] <itnet7> we were all waiting for you zoopster (waits for all of the daily slappings)
[19:35] <zoopster> yea...I can tell, but only you and michael...
[19:35] <zoopster> mhall119: working hard? you are productive already?
[19:45] <mhall119> zoopster: I was productive on my 2nd day
[19:45] <zoopster> rock on mhall119
[19:45] <mhall119> we started a new project my 2nd day, our deadline is this week
[19:46] <mhall119> I was telling Michelle it's the most productive I've been the first couple weeks at a new job, ever
[20:00] <maxolasersquad> I think ubuntu should have a contacts manager like is on the Android.
[20:00] <maxolasersquad> Or really, account management like on the Android.
[20:46] <zoopster> maxolasersquad: what 'chu talkin' 'bout willis?
[20:47] <zoopster> maxolasersquad: like a separate app?
[20:47] <maxolasersquad> The place on Android where I put in all my accounts.
[20:47] <maxolasersquad> So I just put my google account in one time and IM, Gmail, Contacts, Reader, etc. can all get my credentials from the one spot.
[20:48] <maxolasersquad> And the contacts screen has all my contacts from all services I sign in to.
[20:48] <zoopster> ah...that place for me is thunderbird
[20:48] <zoopster> but not the last item
[20:48] <maxolasersquad> Yes, but nothing else uses Thunderbird to get access.
[20:48] <maxolasersquad> If you put your Google credentials in thunderbird, Empathy still won't have your GMail account.
[20:49] <maxolasersquad> errr, your google chat account.
[20:49] <zoopster> ah true
[20:49] <zoopster> that's what evo tried to do
[20:49] <zoopster> but no one could come up with a standard way to do it
[20:49] <maxolasersquad> Yeah, I really like the ideas behind Evolution, but the implementation is buggy and resource intensive.
[20:49] <zoopster> heh...agreed
[20:50] <maxolasersquad> I have a python script that is called by mutt, which calls the Evolution contacts, so I can get email autocomplete in mutt, but the Evolution backend has crashed more often than not.
[20:51] <maxolasersquad> And when it is up, it is very slow to respond.
[20:51] <maxolasersquad> But that probably is the way to do.  Fix the bus in Evo, then patch Empathy and the other apps to tap into it.
[20:52] <zoopster> the evo backend would do what empathy does for me...just decide it wants to go south for a bit then come back
