Re: Vodafone Netherlands stopped...

Odd- I am running beta3, without a problem, and for me the file location is:

/opt/vmc/usr/share/vodafone-mobile-connect-card-driver-for-linux/resources/glade/mobile.png

rather than

/usr/share/vodafone-mobile-connect-card-driver-for-linux/resources/glade/mobile.png

Can you verify where it is stored on your machine, please?

The "1st BONDI Codefest" to be h...

...in the Vodafone R&D Software Lab in Huesca, Spain.

This event will take place during the last week in November (25th-28th) and is going to be co-chaired by Guillermo Caudevilla (Vodafone) and Daniel Coloma (Telefónica). It will gather a bunch of web experts from different companies such as Vodafone, Telefónica, T-Mobile, Orange, Telecom Italia, Aplix and the OMTP in Walqa Technology Park, Huesca (Spain).

Their aim is to speed up the BONDI Reference Implementation (http://www.omtp.org/Bondi/) process so a first release can be made public before Christmas this year. This first release of the BONDI Reference Implementation will be based in the seed code that some companies have contributed to this initiative.

In the case of Vodafone, a key contribution has been made by means of Vodafone MobileScript (https://forge.betavine.net/projects/mobilescript/), an open source project available in Betavine that extends a JavaScript engine to tap into the platform API of a mobile device, and now to be evolved into the BONDI APIs.

This API will enable web pages and widgets to send any sort of messages, start calls, access the contacts within the device addressbook, the appointments in the agenda and many more features. BONDI is also putting a lot of focus in solving the security and privacy issues that accessing to such information may raise. The final goal of the BONDI initiative is to submit requirements, specifications (http://www.omtp.org/Bondi/PublicDraft.aspx) and reference implementions to the W3C for standardization.

Re: Vodafone Netherlands stopped...

I tried, "here" nr. 1 assumes a running program so you can click the connect button (most of the time I'm not even getting there). Also, in my version clicking connect did not give me something to copy/paste.

can you give me the wvdial command I need to run directly?

"here" nr2. describes a totally different problem. It did give me the idea to get the beta3. This gives me a new problem:
