Friday

by Nate Aune last modified January 7, 2006 - 19:37

So we all gathered at the office around noon. At about 1pm we started going over what we were gonna do. We made a bunch of notes about topics that we would address and such. Below is a list of what we decided to tackle:

Topics

Useful calendar views

  • hopefully very slick
  • Ajax
  • look at other successful calendar views and replicate

TeamSpace awareness

  • For a product to be useful for Burning Man and other TeamSpace users, a product should be aware of Teams

Recurring Events

  • Recurrence needs to be stable and powerful

Time Zone support

iCal/vCal integration

Where to Start?:

There a quite a few products that deal with calendaring already, so we needed to decide which one to work on. Should we start a new product? or should we develop ontop of an existing product? So we identified the following products:

  • CalCore/CalZope/CalPlone/CPSSharedCalendar
  • CalendarX
  • Calendaring
  • PloneICalendar

After some discussion, we decided that CalCore was the best base to work from, and the other Nuxeo products (CalZope & CalPlone) would be our starting point.

Common Development Base:

We also discussed the fact that we all need to working from a common base in order to be effective. Here is a list of the stack we decided on:

  • Zope 2.8.4
  • Plone 2.1.1 tarball
  • Python 2.3.5
  • Five 1.2 branch
  • CalCore (versions forthcoming)

The CalPlone bundle (which includes CalCore, CalZope, CalPlone, CMFOnFive, Five 1.2 and iCalendar) is available at https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/CalPlone/bundles/calsprint/
