It really is about the Pipes!
In a recent Blog post by Mr Remnant he was pondering on things he would like to see in Edgy+1.
One of the topics sychronization is a constant bug-bear for those of us with desktops in various locations, Answers to this problem so far have included :
There is however a new project on the horizon . The Gnome Conduit project is a “yet another” attempt to answer the schronization issues of multiple working environments I hope it gets the attention and support that such a project deserves.
Thanks for reading.
Keeping everything synchronized can be a major chore: I have an Ubuntu laptop, a PC that might be running Ubuntu or Gentoo depending on when it was last rebooted, and a USB drive that runs FOSS on a firewalled Windows machine.
Google’s sync extension can help with Firefox, but I keep having to log into a remote machine and/or mount another partition and transfer files manually.
Anybody who comes up with a quick, easy, reliable, multi-platform synchronizer will certainly find himself running a very popular project!
