[SailfishDevel] SMS for m2m communication

[kaa at iol.cz]

Mikael, know you things: opensource, git, OBS service .. ??? With those things, openrepos wil be nice and safe place for users with brain. More safe then closed app in Harbour. 
I like ideas as Maemo4-extras repo - only one way to this repo exist: automatic build from opensource "git" place. I know "this binary is builded from exact this sources". 

Last words: exist more open and more safe solutions then Harbour only. :)

PS: problem "upgrade vs openrepos" packages is easy. High level apps (GUI) are not possible to break OS by simply "install". Unofficial libraries or OS tools: yes (problem with bash in last update). But: when OS reposes are wrong defined (without priorities), in this case is easy to destroy OS by any 3party package. I have openSUSE with zypper 5 years on few PC. With good priority setting isn't possible to break OS with worst priority unsupported packages. :)

PPS: excuse me for ugly english..

Hmm, your signature is kinda ironic ;) One of the reason harbour does not 
allow SMS is to be safe from risk for developers not misuse or by mistake send 
SMS:ses without user knows it or viruses, malware etc?


Now you prefer unsafe operrepos thats allows everything. And we already knows 
people got problems with they'r phone when upgrade to latest version and some 
(not all) reasons are because of apps in openrepos.


I dont say openrepos is bad BUT restrictions is needed for reasons. Openrepos 
is a playground for testers and developers which can be great. But NOT 
something I recommend for endusers software.


As stated here already I think there need to use an more controlled extra 
repos at merproject where developers can upload apps that later easy can be 
pushed to harbour. And harbour- suffix should not be allowed on openrepos IMHO.


Point is developers should still support harbour as number one and instead 
push ideas how to implement X/Y/Z without risk for malware/viruses etc... 
I do not beleive openrepos is the solution.
