Evolution Is Buggy

In open source, the bigger the user base for an application the better, the more stable the application is. That's because developers get more feedback and users ARE developers themselves, whether they do code or not. Sometimes due to the complexity of the application the bugs just adds up.

I do appreciate that people are giving it their time and love, but evolution is still buggy for me.

I could not connect to my account when before I can. This should be persistent and I checked the online accounts and there's no notification of a problem there.

Evolution Mail on GNOME 3.26

There's a slight change in the user interface. A To Do column now appears to the rightmost after the GNOME 3.26 update. Also there's a noticeable stability increase, what with goa-daemon stopping its RAM usage creep. I don't have to kill it every couple of hours.

Appindicator In Natty Ubuntu 11.04

Previously ranted about the blind alley Ubuntu 11.04 seemed to be leading us when it comes to some applications not being ready yet for the dropping of system tray. What I should have done is press on. There are posts about editing a white list with a recommended GUI tool to help us out here , here and here . Like everything in Linux, there's a configuration file for it, if you can find it and if you have the inclination to go ninja. If not then there's dconf-editor. Download dconf-tools from Software Center. Navigate to desktop>unity>panel. Add your application in the white list. Then close the window. No save button. mmm. So far I have added Shutter, Dropbox and Keepassx in the white list. Before... After.
