Howdy,

This might be awesome if done with something like syncthing uses. You
could share your remind key with someone, and they could view
availability, or even scheduled events bassed on permissions. Everything
would be peer to peer, so no need for central servers.

That would certainly be a lot of work. The rewards for such a system
might be pretty neat though.

Thanks,
Storm

Single-person calendar with different devices is my use case with
Remind + remint indeed. There is an AUTOSYNC=on/off option in remint
for force synchronization to a pre-configured git remote (pulling
when running the script, and pushing when quitting it) so I guess
this could be used for collaborative calendars as long as every
collaborator has read/write permissions on the git repository.

Git, IMO, is not the right tool for the job.  It's a revision-control
tool; it doesn't understand calendaring or schedule conflicts.

I was thinking of developing something that could manage Remind
calendars centrally.  You could then search for free time to schedule
meetings by running Remind against each person's calendar in a special
mode that tracks busy/free times... some sort of daemon to do the calendar
management.

However, that sounded like a lot of work and since Remind has no chance
of being used in a corporate environment anyway (where most of the demand
for shared calendars is) I don't think it would be worth it.

If someone else wants to tackle this... go for it! :)

Regards,

Dianne.

Most of you are familiar with the virtues of a programmer. There are three, of 
course: laziness, impatience, and hubris.
