1. GNOME Journal (formerly GNOME Activity Journal)
By Stefano Candori
1.1. Overview of the project
The proposed project is about combining support for overviewing and re-finding past, current and future user activities in one user interface. Hence, I will revamp and rewrite the current Activity Journal application, which will then be hosted on the GNOME infrastructure. Beyond mapping out a user's past and current doings, the journal's UI-metaphor time lends itself to be further leveraged for reminding a user about upcoming stuff.
1.2. Screeshoot
Here you are with a screeshoot of the current state of the application (20th August 2012, end of GSOC).
