Thanks to Bryan and Jono for the meeting.
Here is the summary that I’ve written down:
- Thunderbird is getting new search-centric UI soon. It’ll also have combined inbox and other folders from all mail accounts.
- Tom Brown (TJ?) from Seneca wants to work on Tbird Ubiquity too.
- We will be using Tbird trunk
- Gloda – global sql database. API allows chaining of functions. Need to learn it and use calls to gloda for Tbird Ubiquity.
- Tbird Ubiquity Usecases: 1) normalized searching (e.g. “find all messages from Bryan”) 2) convert message to calendar appointment 3) autotagging by plugin to gloda (data mining) – addresses, urls, images.
- Need to get sidebar for gloda. Also new toolbar extention using gloda. Get some tbird addons as examples.
- developer.mozilla.org should have windows Tbird build manual.
- First ubiquity command idea: “write to person” with autocomplete of e-mails.
- Need to figure how to split tbird and firefox commands in commandutils.js.
- Will need to figure interprocess communication between Firefox and Tbird Ubiquity.
