Googlecalendar4Ruby is not dead

Well at least not yet ;)

I've lots of ideas, features and enhancements to add but very little time to do them.

I started a big refactoring of the code in svn. (I tried to keep it backward compatible)

I started to use "newgem" to reduce time and energy for releases.
Unfortunalty newgem made me loose more time than I gain for the moment because it's not meant to be use on windows (ex: it use rsync), I didn't find a workaround to this with cygwin (all my gem a installed with windows native system...) and I didn't have any linux box setup at the moment...

Things I'd like to do/fix in the next big release of googlecalendar 1.0.0:
- include fixes provided by contributors waiting in my mail box
- enhance rails google calendar integration in the rails plugin
- update to modern rails plugin layout (the current rails plugin was created in rails 1.x I think)
- add dependency in the rails plugin to the ruby gem (avoid code duplication between gem and plugin)
- better svn layout (trunk/branches/tags). rubyforge'svn will be the official repo for the googlecalendar releases.
- doing some unit / integration test
- better documentation (a real webite with examples) (already partly done at: http://googlecalendar.rubyforge.org/)
- setup git repo on github/gitorious to help me with contributions (avoid patch waiting in my mailbox for ages) and learn git at the same time

Let's hope I find time for this ;)

Happy New Year :)
