Hi Isuru,
The digest view looks really promising. Please make a pull request.

Hi Wim,
Digest view stability
I fixed the the bug of 'digest view crashing when no store is active'.
A service listener is added for the digest view to listen to store register/unregister.
So it works similar to the navigator group view.
It will prevent crashes when user tries to use the digest view when the store is stopped.
And it will allow digest view work immediately after a store is registered.
I fixed some other bugs I found.
Notifications
jar files were added to the lib folder of org.eclipse.ecf.salvo.ui project.
When we subscribe to a new newsgroup, a notification with all the messages is displayed.
If 100 new articles added, only subjects of 10 will be displayed. Rest will be indicated as "plus 90 more articles received".
So it is not a very large popup.
As you mentioned, it gives some kind of a summary.
You mentioned that when scrolling the article panel a notification is displayed.
But I didn't notice that. When a new article batch is fetched, it didn't give me a notification.
If the code is in good order, shall we pull this in to the Salvo main repository ?

Hi,
Yes we have first make this stable.
So we have to finalize whether we use mylyns commons ui bundle for displaying notifications.
If so, how we are going to add this dependency.
Are we going to add the jar file to a library folder and redistribute it with salvo.
Improvements
When displaying the notification of a new Article, if it is a reply to a question that the user has asked we can indicate it (Context based notification).
Provide a detailed description of the notification when we click on the notification. We can display a separate dialog showing the fetched articles details.
Thank you

Hi,
I implemented the functionality "synchronizing the store with the server periodically".
User is given the chance to set the synchronizing time interval through the Salvo preference page.
Once the new articles are fetched, the digest view is updated automatically with the newly fetched articles.
A desktop notification is displayed once new articles are fetched.
For displaying a notification, I have used mylyn commons.ui bundle.
Currently I have created very basic notification popup which is to be improved later.
Please note that I haven't finalized the decision of using mylyn notification mechanism to display the notification popup.
I will do some further research to find the best possible way to show a notification.
Can you please have a look at the work I have done.
Thank you

Hi,
As discussed earlier, we have to synchronize with the server timely.
Currently in our UpdateRunner we are synchronizing with the server only on the Newsgroup attributes (Low watermark, High watermark, article count) with the hard corded time interval of 6 Minutes.
Correction - 10 Minutes
We have to fetch articles from the server and store them to the store.
We can give user a option (In preference page) to decide the time interval to be synchronized. That is how it is done in Mylyn.
When fetching articles from the server, if new articles are fetched and if it meets certain conditions (Ex. A reply to a posted question) we can display a popup.
We can first check for newsgroup attributes, and if they are updated we can fetch new articles from the server.
