>>> Michael Meeks <michael meeks novell com> 4/8/2010 7:35 AM >>> Hi guys, Sooo ... we have some new account sniffing code in Evolution; to turn eg. 'foobaa gmail com' into the relevant account settings for imap, ports, SMTP etc. We are shamelessly borrowing this data from mozilla - which is problematic, not just because we rely on them, but also they are -unbelievably- slow to serve a tiny (effectively static) XML file: ~18 seconds for the first try; a chunk of which seems to be DNS resolution: $ time wget https://live.mozillamessaging.com/autoconfig/gmail.com eg. Anyhow - of course, this is a screaming nasty bug for Intel (P1 etc.) - and I was wondering: Can we host a set of nearly static, seldom changed XML files for these guys on http://api.gnome.org/ somewhere ? Clearly - it would really help to get that setup quickly :-) Paul - any ideas ? The files we need are currently also installed for off-line use and are in evolution HEAD git inside: evolution/capplet/settings/mail-autoconfig/ Under 1Mb of disk, of which we would serve sub 1k per user setting up a new account. Thanks, Michael. -- michael meeks novell com <><, Pseudo Engineer, itinerant idiot |
