I don't know of any. But, there is hope :) You could setup an imap folder as your Calendar folder (standardize it to be "calendar" or something). Then have a process that updates a shared calendar web app with drop down boxes. If you have your watcher process just check for size differences every once in a while on your imap server (or if it was hooked in somehow) that would be ideal. I wrote a simple ical_parser in perl (avail: http://www.cgi101.com/~ken/) if you want a good starting point for the web app... I'll leave all the other implementation details to the imagination of the poor sap implementing this. -Ken _______________________________________________ PDXLUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pdxlug.org/mailman/listinfo/pdxlug
