Michal has just released new stable Gammu and I'm very happy from it (although in the same time I don't agree with some changes inside...). I have read some his older blog entries and have some comments too...

But let's start from beginning ;-). I have created final version of my diploma work and now I'm waiting for exam connected with it (all other connected with "real" studies were passed). In meantime I got job too (at least for now...).

It was week of silence. Because of it I decided to write this report.

First I will say about facts - I was trying to explain reason of repeating Windows BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) BUGCODE_USB_DRIVER. I had given up. Tomorrow my private PC will go to service. I hope, that they will do their job without additional problems, which are here visible in companies very often. Everything next will depend on it (especially on tomorrow day). I hope to explain some other things during this week too :-)

Gammu+ 0.22.00 available. Released, because diff file was too big ;-) Among various bugfixes and improvements I would like to notify especially, that during restoring software inform, what from pbk wasn't restored and why.

I must say, that it's near such point, that I have everything for personal usage. For quite new phones you have:

• pbk support (excluding caller groups, ringtones, sms lists, voice tags and few other, which are IDs for some phone memory places, everything is like in Gammu 1.09.00 or even better)

Well, in previous week I was playing with Borland Turbo C++, during weekend I found some alternative and enough solutions with wxWidgets and wxDev-C++.

There has been Gammu+ 0.28 released. There is promised shared MMS/SMS API inside and some other changes. This is still test release, but there is next big step into first stable version done. If somebody will want, I will allow for using it under GPL/LGPL3 (and this is not possible for Gammu without "+").

Gammu 1.09.16 is out. The only one change is in ChangeLog - it informs, that currently releases will be done Michal. I hope, that this is good decision and project will grow faster. I will try to look into it from time to time and inform Michal, when something is wrong (or send him patches). We will see in the future, if decision was good not...

Some words about future...

Gammu

Next test release - this week/weekend. What will be next in this project, depends mainly on Michal Cihar.

Gammu+

I'm working on real MMS decoder (this moved from Gammu is not too good). Can anyone send me as many example MMS as possible ? (I know, I know, that there are some softwares for creating, but this is not the same...) It will be treat confidential and not published.

I have started MMS viewer too (GUI already can work without phone).

• Gammu 1.07.15 has been released today - it contains various fixes, improvements for new models, filesystem, etc. I also spent a lot of time on Symbian.

Few facts from my point of view ;-):

I was asking myself - what is future of "my" projects ? Does anyone need them ?

How did it end ?

I was playing today with Turbo C++ from Borland. After about 1 and half hour I had compiled Gammu+ with primitive GUI able to get root folders from phone filesystem. If everything will go fine, I will be able to publish it somewhere in next week (with all main filesystem issues like navigating, uploading/download, etc.).

• it looks, that communication between me and Michal is done more using blogs than emails now. It's good and bad.

• gammu.org account was disabled for about 3-4 hours during 26 October (I will try to investigate it with provider), page was unavailable in majority of 30-31 October too (this time server was exchanged after cpu+mainboard dead). Everything is restored from backups - if you will see any problems or missed things, please let me know ASAP.
