filling the pymsn AddressBook

March 25, 2007

This weekend, I’ve started to implement methods as add_contact, delete_contact, add_group, delete_group, rename_group, etc. at the pymsn’s AddressBook level of abstraction. Things are getting cleaner and with hope, almost all of the soap stuff in WLM will be covered in pymsn in the next three weeks. Changes are merged on my personal branch.
Last week of school before holidays, I’m totally out of classes and I should get myself back into all the school stuff because it could hurt later with exams (at the end of May). I’m not really motivated to code on simmobil too. I’m going to Paris on the first week of holidays (Tuesday-Friday), attending Fostel and sleeping by my brother. I’ll maybe give a lightning talk at Fostel about pymsn (need, development, use) but I’m not really sure yet : first talk in english in front of skilled people, it could hurt : I need to prepare for it and we’ll see. The other week will be filled with school and pymsn work. Adrien should start working on halazoon soon, maybe we’ll work on the architecture this week so he could start coding. Since it’s based on telepathy-python, it’s not gonna be difficult. I have a urge need to play with cairo too :)

Well, trying hard to read my network course book… :(

Plans

March 15, 2007

No time to say anything but that enumeration :

  • Mar 15-18 CeBIT, Hannover : 18 hours in the bus (I take a copy of telepathy spec + Asimov’s Foundation with me), bier, friends, food, technologies ;
  • In two weeks, holiday again (two weeks long) : massive work on pymsn, foundations of halazoon, and Apr 4-5 Fostel, Paris with maybe a lightning talk about pymsn/halazoon ;
  • May 10th-13th Rock n’ Solex, Rennes : concerts and solex race ;
  • Summer : 3 months holiday, I plan to work a bit (like, a month) where I usually work at summer to earn money to feel comfortable to realize all of my others summer projects : July 15-21 GUADEC, Birmingham where we (the ospy/pymsn/butterfly/halazoon team) plan to give a talk. I’m looking forward to see Ali and meet Ole. August 10-12 La Route du Rock, St. Malo. I plan to spend several weeks in Olso, Norway. All that surrounded and mixed by full time development on pymsn ;
  • Back to school October 1st.
