Evolution Data Server Backend For Google Calendar - Status

["ebby wiselyn" <ebbywiselyn gmail com>]

Hello everyone, 

This week , Was working on , backend part of evolution data server . The server  uses libsoup , and the latest build of it had a bug , which removes the header , while sending the GET request , which never occurred while authenticating , with the GET request . So every time the POST was done with a *valid* auth token it seems to fail . Just because , the header which was set , in the program using the libsoup API was explicitly removed by underlying methods . :-/ Strange ? . 

Had to fix it , And took me two days to figure it out . Cause had no idea where the problem was, whether local to my system or other things . 

My updates this week . 
----------------------------

* Finally managed to write the plugins for evolution to connect/integrate the ESource with the backends

* Managed to get the e-d-s server running which can Now 1) connect /
                                                                                     2) authenticate /
                                                                                      3) request /
                                            
                                               google calendar for feeds end stores as a GdataEntry which in turn is changed to a ECalComponent . 


Task Remaining
_______________

* Writing the extensions for the gdata-library ( Half done )
* Making the calendar appear in evolution . ( Which needs a little more , work it seems to be failing somewhere , and am looking into it :) ) 
* Working on Writing entries, Updating , Querying ( if possible ) . 
        ( Though i have got this done , as a separate library , still haven't integrated in evolution ) .
