Opie 1.2.5 development status

Hi all,

The Opie 1.2.5 cycle is now drawing to a close - most of the bugs on the 
agenda have been fixed and a significant number of changes have taken place. For 
reference, the 1.2.5 master bug:

  http://opie-bugs.softec.co.nz/view.php?id=1898

I've just moved the following bugs from the 1.2.5 master bug to the newly 
created 1.2.6 one (0001934) since I think they can comfortably be left until 
next time:

 * 0001897: Optionally disable built-in FTP server if syncing not in progress
 * 0001870: Add simple mime detector to libopieobex
 * 0000875: launcher polls

Status of the remaining bugs is as follows:

 * 0001910: Large time jump causes Datebook problems
To be finished by me; shouldn't be too tricky now that (I think) I have figured 
out where the problem lies.

 * 0000774: Need some sort of feedback when going to suspend mode
I've done some work on this but it will mostly have to wait until next 
release.

 * 0001922: OpieIRC crashes
Can't reproduce this anymore, although since it was intermittent in the first 
place I want to test OpieIRC further on an actual device before marking it 
resolved.

 * 0001931: Make SQLite backends the default for 1.2.5
To be done by me - fairly trivial.

 * 0001899: Finish Datebook2 rewrite
Largely finished. All that really remains other than testing is to replace 
datebook1.

 * 0001878: Support syncing in SQL backend
Mostly done, but I'm waiting until the OpenSync plugin is fully working (and 
therefore I can be sure that no more protocol changes are needed) before 
marking this as resolved.

 * 0001829: irdaapplet causes qpe to crash when sending files
Honestly I have not looked into this, not sure if it is still an issue 
although my gut says it probably is.  It has to be some kind of race 
condition. I really hope we don't have to postpone this one yet again - I 
believe it was originally on the cards for 1.2.3!

 * 0001831: Default button combination to launch calibration
I think this ought to be done. Shouldn't be too hard - the only slightly 
tricky thing is to come up with a way to register the appropriate key 
combination for each device, since not all devices have the buttons discussed.

I'm open to fixing any other issues if there are any urgent ones to be fixed - 
please let me know ASAP. In about two weeks I think we should freeze 
development and begin testing. Thoughts?

Cheers,
Paul
