I'm rewriting Evolution's autoconfig feature for 3.5, which queries
api.gnome.org for account details based on the user's email address.
For example:
http://api.gnome.org/evolution/autoconfig/gmail.com
I noticed the data there is nearly two years old, so I thought I'd give
it a refresh. It's pretty much a straight copy of Mozilla's repo [1].
However there's catch...
Mozilla has since changed the file format. Whereas the previous XML
format started with simply <clientConfig>, the latest files now have
<clientConfig version="1.1"> and some things are named differently.
In order to not break backward-compatibility, I thought I'd create a
"1.1" subdirectory and place the updated files there.
So for example Evolution's new parser would query:
http://api.gnome.org/evolution/autoconfig/1.1/gmail.com
The api-web.doap file has some dire warnings about committing without
permission, so I'm seeking permission.
Thanks,
Matthew Barnes
