I have been waiting for an app like conduit for quite sometime. Mostly because I live and breath based on Tomboy notes, and hate not really having a backup besides the rsync of my homedir from time to time.

Conduit can sync notes to backpackit.com, as well as sync other things too. I did hit a couple problems with 0.3.0, #99 and #100. I am looking forward to be able to use this on a regular bases, currently I can only successfully sync one note then it fails which definately isn’t optimal

Tonight I hope to play with gmail syncing, hope that works

I did package conduit 0.3.0 and it can be found on foresight.rpath.org@fl:1-contrib

I am trying out googlegroups for archiving foresight commit mail. Pretty cool service, nice web interface, and now I can have an rss feed for commits.

http://groups.google.com/group/foresight-linux-commits

http://groups.google.com/group/foresight-linux-commits/feed/atom_v1_0_topics.xml?num=50

Down side is I can’t seem to get the diff output in the rss feed. It is displayed properly via the web interface, just left out of the feed. If anyone knows how to do that, please let me know.

The trick to properly archiving without actually subscribing the group to your mailing list is in the advanced settings for the group. Took me a little digging to find it, but once you get to that page it is obvious.
