Full Offline Mode now in Calendar 1.0 rc2

Calendar 1.0 rc 2 now comes with offline support packaged for CALDAV and ICS calendar providers. For CALDAV calendar it allows retrying of events if for any reason, the updates failed to be sent to the server.


You can find it at its new location on the addons.mozilla.org beta channel (If you still get 1.0rc1, then please try again in a few hours when the page cache has been updated).


If you encounter any issues, please file a bug at bugzilla.mozilla.org.


Or you can share your experiences via comments below.


Happy to hear from you regarding your experiences. Hope you enjoy the feature.

Binaries are online *Solely for getting Test feedback*

Hi everyone,

Binaries for the different platforms are online now at https://github.com/creativepsyco/Lightning-1.0-b2-Offline-Sync-Binaries . If you have an interest in helping me test out the Offline Sync feature you can go ahead, download the xpi file appropriate to your system and try out thunderbird with the offline sync enabled lightning. Or if you are just curious what this version of lightning can do create a dev profile in Thunderbird and install the add-on into that profile, help on this is available here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/setting_up_extension_development_environment#Development_profile

I must stress that things may break, and when they do break, send me an email at mohit.kanwal(AT)gmail.com or  file an issue in github, I will then get in touch with you regarding the cause of the issue and sort it out.

So yeah, go ahead and give it a try. You would need a stable build of Thunderbird to use with the binary...

Looking forward to some feedback :-)

cheers
