[gnome-bluetooth] State of Play

[Matthew Booth]

I've been playing with the GNOME bluetooth stuff for a couple of months
now. I have the Nautilus bluetooth plugin working nicely and can
drag/drop things on to it and have them show up on my phone.

I'm slightly concerned about my setup. To get things working, I've had
to symlink some files from where they're installed in /usr/local to the
equivalent place in /usr. This includes the gnome-vfs stuff and
GNOME_Bluetooth_Manager.server. Does anybody know of a way to make this
a bit cleaner?

The one major bit I haven't gotten working yet is the obex server. I
have the little blue antenna sitting in my notification area, and my
phone can see my computer, but sending things to it does nothing. The
phone (Siemens S55) doesn't give an error, it just returns immediately.
Any ideas?

What is it supposed to do, and where would it put files anyway?
