or if not a video maybe some docs (?)

Not direclty interested in this, but maybe a good way to see somebody
capable to add more server backends.
Maybe not related directly to users but more to developers.
A small tutorial to give developers the basics to create new server
storage backends (suppose I'd like to add a server backend to get IMAP
e-mails or integrate with Kolab)

The main idea would be to create development/integration/setup tutorials
to help developers playing with OpenChange and take the best of it.
Video tutorial about development is not quite an easy task, but I'm
willing to take this challenge.
Thanks for looking at this. I think it is very important to make it
easy to get involved.
So finally here is the question: What you (developers/users) would like
to see as tutorial #001? You'll find below a small set of ideas, feel
free to propose others depending on your OpenChange needs:
1. Setup OpenChange proxy
2. Set an OpenChange based project from scratch (autotools, Makefile,
sample example)
3. Beginning with libmapi
4. Playing with openchange tools (create profile, openchangeclient,
exchange2mbox etc.)
It would be good if the tutorials were broken up, so they aren't too
large. I'd prefer to see several small tutorials than one very long
one. It doesn't matter if some tutorials are only a few minutes.
Some ideas:
* a tour of the codebase, pointing out the apidox, different
libraries, examples, command line tools, and some of the resources we
have (svn, trac, wiki, buildbot)
* use of OCPF (which is a really, really powerful idea)
* a description of how libmapi works (IDL, building structures,
calling down, getting responses) and how the proxy works
* the design of the server.
* when playing with openchange tools, perhaps try to relate them to
what the user sees in outlook, and what is happening with the
underlying protocol (e.g. for mapiprofile, you could discuss the
profile concept, what each element of the profile is called in
outlook, and what happens with the NSPI protocol).
When we have all of this, I'll try to come up with more ideas :-)
