Marcin offered me today to take over Gammu maintanance, what I gladly accepted. He will make next testing release and then I will have button for creating releases in my hands :-).

Therefore my releases will be uploaded to http://dl.cihar.com/gammu/releases and information about them will be available in simmilar form to Wammu and python-gammu in Gammu releases feed.

In development version of Wammu, I started to add some interaction with my website. For now there are only menu entries to access website and bug tracker, but there should be later integrated some access to phone database.

First part is getting feedback from user. Easiest option is to open web browser with prefilled values. This would not allow to remember state whether user actually already provided feedback, but I don't know how much I want to bother users. More complicated would be to fill in form in Wammu and submit it from python. This should not be much complicated, I'm only abit affraid of synchronisation of enum choices on both sides (eg. connection names).

The second part is integration in phone configuration, so that user can enter his phone name/vendor and will get list of reports. This is a bit harder than reporting stuff, but it is needed to give phone database more usage.

Do you have any other ideas how to integrate this functionality in Wammu? Please write me.
