Stopping add-ons development and support

I've moved into a house and I cannot share times to add-ons development. Moreover, the new house is offline so far. So, it is difficult to update this blog, too.

So, please let me stop the development and support for a while. It is OK to mail me and post a comment to this blog but my reply will late. I'll inform you when I start them at this blog.

Google Contacts 0.5.11

Google Contacts v0.5.10 has a problem in group synchronization. So, I've released Google Contacts v0.5.11 which disables the optimization of synchronization in v0.5.10. I plan to rewrite the synchronization process in order to improve its speed and memory usage. Please use v0.5.11 until the next version is released.

Google Contacts 0.5.10

Google Contacts 0.5.10 is now available for download. It improves a performance of Interactive synchronization. It will creates a "xml" directory in a backup directory even if the number of backup files is set to 0. It is used to reduce unnecessary synchronization. So, don't remove the directory and its contents.

Google Contacts 0.5.00

Google Contacts 0.5.00 is now available for download. It includes the following changes:

• Added: Convert Thunderbird and Gmail's address field and synchronize them (disabled by default)
  
• Added: Implement UI to custmize backup options
• Added: Gmail's system groups are synchronized
  
• Fixed: Some contacts will not synchronized when you synchronize more than 100 contacts by Batch mode
• Changed: Show alert when contacts will be deleted by default
• Fixed: Fails to retrieve password for an account
• Added: Clear all prefs when it is uninstalled
• Changed: Disable a functionality which excludes an account from sync accounts when its address book is removed
• Fixed: Fails to synchronize Gmail groups which include non-ASCII characters
• Fixed: Adding and removing email from a mail list is not synchronized

It includes fixes of serious problems. I recommend all users to update.

Gmail IMAP Account Setup 1.6.10

Gmail IMAP Account Setup 1.6.10 is available for download now. It newly adds a locale switching option in the account setup wizard, which was desired by many users.

Gmail IMAP Account Setup requires that Thunderbird's language is the same as Gmail's display language. If Thunderbird language setting differs from one for Gmail, select Gmail's display language in the menulist at the bottom of the account wizard.

If you are Ubuntu Linux user, the option will not work correctly. It is a problem in Ubuntu, not in the addon. Please change locale by starting up Thunderbird with -uiLocale option.

It also includes new locales. Please see the post for supported locales.
