Re: [Tracker] Mixed mode call log support

[Ivan Frade <ivan frade gmail com>]

Hi,

 Yes, i guess it is the best way to integrate this. We can talk about it more interactively in the IRC. Would be great to have it before the next stable release.

 About subclass or instances... instances will perform better and make less noise in the DB. So i would use subclasses only if we find specific properties for those call methods.

 Regards,

Ivan

I'm OK with using subclasses. Do you need us to submit a patch to the existing Tracker ontology with the suggested new subclasses?

I would prefer subclasses, unless those subtypes can be overlapping. I
imagine it also makes sense since there might be some properties in the
future that would only be applicable to certain kind of calls (video
properties for 3G video for example).

Hi Ivan,

Thanks for your response. Chris has asked me to provide you with more
detail on what we need.

For the desired UI we need to be able to tell from the call history
if a call was:
* A GSM Voice Call
* A CDMA Voice Call
* A 3G Video Call

Right now all of these would probably be stored in Tracker as
nmo:Call objects. So we could add the "call mode" property as you
suggested to nmo:Call to distinguish between the 3 different types.

However, I see in the ontology there is also an nmo:VOIPCall which is
a subclass of nmo:Call, do you think it would be better to make 3
additional subclasses similar to nmo:VOIPCall instead of adding a new
property?

Thanks for your input,

Matt

Hi Chris

 Sounds like an easy addition to the ontology that makes sense. If i
understand correctly, it could be a "call mode" property with a
predefined set of instances. can you provide more details? (usual
call modes and so on) how does this fit with voip call?

 regards,

We would like to provide a call log feature that can support
multiple

of voice and even video calls, e.g. GSM/CDMA voice, Video, VoIP
on a

that is using Tracker for its persistent storage.

nmo:Call lets you track who the call is from  and which contact it

went to

and nmo:recivedDate lets you store the date and time when a call

occurred.

I can use these as part of the call log, but still need a way to

capture the

communication mode used for the call - especially important on
dual

GSM/CDMA

devices.. Are there thoughts in the Tracker community for
additional

support

for call log functions in the ontology, perhaps through adding
"call

mode"?

Thanks,
