for XNotesNG"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>I think I should mention some of my goals for XNotesNG.\u00a0 First, the current CVS tree is missing many of the features of the old XNotesPlus because of the port from C\/GTK+ to Java\/SWT is not complete.\u00a0 Second, I don&#8217;t have a need for integration with my Palm Pilot anymore since I don&#8217;t use it.\u00a0 But I do want to finish the calendar and then add a TimeTracker since I need it at work.<\/p>\n<p>After that there are lots of possibilities.\u00a0 The <a href=\"https:\/\/xnotesng.org\/wiki\/pmwiki.php\">wiki<\/a> has lots of information on this.\u00a0 The <a href=\"https:\/\/xnotesng.org\/wiki\/pmwiki.php?n=XNotes.CurrentWork\">current work<\/a> page lists much of what I&#8217;m working on right now.\u00a0 This includes a simple update to SWT 3.5 that will allow me to integrate a search box to the notes and a list of features that some users of the <a href=\"http:\/\/lug.boulder.co.us\/\">Boulder Linux Users Group<\/a> mentioned they wanted to see in a note program.\u00a0 There are also some much older (and probably out of date) ideas on the <a href=\"https:\/\/xnotesng.org\/wiki\/pmwiki.php?n=XNotes.Pre40\">Pre-4.0 plans<\/a> page.<\/p>\n<p>There are lots of places this can go.\u00a0 With a plugin interface I would like to encourage external projects that can install under XNotesNG as add-ons.\u00a0 I&#8217;d love to see an implementation of Centipede added, just for fun.<\/p>\n<p>Other ideas include<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Converting the simple menu to an iPod like browser to find apps.<\/li>\n<li>Adding a network sync option to allow multiple instances of XNotesNG running for a single user on different systems to stay in sync with notes and other apps via a centralized server or perhaps a P2P type interaction.<\/li>\n<li>Make a much better splash image.\u00a0 You&#8217;d think the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.graphics-muse.org\/wp\/\">Graphics Muse<\/a> would know how to do that, but it&#8217;s just getting around to it that&#8217;s the problem.<\/li>\n<li>Integrating a browser that can connect to remote virtual machines.\u00a0 I have ideas on how to do this based on my day job, but that&#8217;s for much later.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are many other ideas that would be cool to think about.\u00a0 For now, I just need to finish what I have under Current Work and get some other developers involved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think I should mention some of my goals for XNotesNG.\u00a0 First, the current CVS tree is missing many of the features of the old
