= Labs =0.3 Attachment Reminder == Just going to expand more features on Attachment Reminder Bug. Make it more user friendly. One of the ways to make it user friendly is to allow user to add new keywords which Thunderbird will look for in the body of the email. http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/User:Attachment_Reminder == 0.4 Attachment Reminder ==I forgot to write about this one. If you need to read more about this click [http://cdpatel1.blogspot.com/2009/01/attachment-reminder-04.html[here]]. == 0.5 Attachment Reminder==In this release I have addressed all the issues raised in the [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=244455#c33[comment]].I would encourage more and more people to download my [http://www.geocities.com/chinmay_patel@ymail.com/attachmentreminderPatcho5Beta.txt[patch]] and provide me some feedback. Moreover, I have created a [http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/User:Cdpatel1#Suggestion_BOX[suggestion box]] in my profile page, feel free to edit it. == 0.6 (Attachment Reminder + LIBNOTIFY) ==This is a combined release of two BUGs: Attachment Reminder and LIBNOTIFY Notifications. I think, this could be the last patch for Attachment reminder. But, I am open to work more if needed. My another task is to make Thunderbird notify new emails through LIBNOTIFY. I have started working on it and set up the required environment for the BUG. Here is the [http://www.geocities.com/chinmay_patel@ymail.com/patch_06_INDIA.txt[PATCH]]. == 0.7 Attachment Reminder + LIBNOTIFY + Tango Icons ==This release was a mix of three bugs. [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=244455[Attachment reminder bug]], [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=478463[Libnotify bug]] and [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483777[Tango Icons Bug]].
Moreover, I am going through my worst period in the [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=232500244455[Attachment Reminder]] bug because I am not having any work done. I am submitting the patches but it doesn't apply properly. They say that it the patch is bitrotten. What else can be happen if I they are checking the patch after the 2 weeks of upload date? But, I can certainly understand their busy schedule and try my best to get work done.
My prospect bug is [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448971483777[Tango Icons bug]]. Currently, I don't have any idea what is going on with that bug. I only know that I am going to do that bug.
== 0.8 Attachment Reminder + Tango Icons ==0.8 is the combined release for [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=349547244455[Attachment Reminder Bug]] and [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483777[Tango Icons Bug]].
For the [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id== Lab 7 : Modifying 244455[Attachment reminder bug]], I am getting somewhat impatience. I am trying my best and still not be able to get it done. Improper apply of the patch and building errors for the patch are killing me. I am not getting the reason why my patches are creating so much issues in other machines? I guess, I have to create the patch and ask David Humphrey, if he can apply my patch and build Thunderbird With extension Lab ==. Hopefully, next will be my last patch.
[[Imagehttps:addtabbeside//bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.xpicgi?id=483777[Tango Icons bug]]is the most interesting bug for me. It contains some user interface stuffs that I like the most. In this bug, I have to apply the patch created by Andreas Nilsson, one of the community member, and make the patch compatible to the hg mercurial. In this bug, I have learned about combination of CSS, XUL and images in Thunderbird code.
Although I am almost done by Attachment Reminder, I have lot of work to do in Tango icons Bug. I have to merge all those separate icons images into one big image. Then I have to refer to that image from the Thunderbird CSS. Evenhough It sounds so easy, it requires a lot of manual coding. Apart from all the work that I have to finish, I will try my best to get this bug done in next two weeks.
== Final Release ==
I am so glad to announce that my Attachment reminder bug is complete. I just got the review+ from Megnus Malin. Now, I am just waiting for the UI review? I guess, there should not be any problem. Let us see how does it go?

Moreover, I have taken the next course DPS911 to continue my journey through open source world. I still need to talk to David Humphrey what I am going to do in that course. I would be looking for some HOT and HARD meat to work on for my future course. Hopefully, and I will, I would be able to satisfy the requirements of-mozilla-dom-inspectorOpen Source Community.html
