Connector includes a camel provider that talks to connector main, but the camel provider isn't anything to do with calendaring. ___ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers

There is a camel provider as part of Connector, but that's just to let evolution-mail talk to the evolution-exchange-storage backend. The calendar and addressbook parts are handled by the respective IDLs for those components, the same way the wombat handles the local calendar and addressbook folders. Connector also implements the GNOME:Evolution:ShellComponent interface, because that's the easiest way for it to get itself launched and get access to the shell. It uses the shell IDL to create the Exchange folder tree. (The wombat doesn't need to do that because the shell adds the local folders to the tree itself, and the addressbook component adds the LDAP folders.) > Or currently, I can > define a Free/Busy URL for each user in the address book, say using FTP. > However, doing this require the user to setup the URL manually?

The PCS is not a "server" in the way you mean. You can use the code as an example of how to write a calendar backend, but it won't be directly useful for creating a multi-user calendar server. -- Dan ___ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
Re: [Evolution-hackers] calendar server for evolution?
Hi, My foucs is how I can implement a multiuser calendar server that it can be used by evolution without modifying evolution. My understand so far is that ximian connector is indeed a 'camel' provider, the exchange calendar is a 'folder' from evolution point of view ( am I right? ). Or currently, I can define a Free/Busy URL for each user in the address book, say using FTP. However, doing this require the user to setup the URL manually? Or, I can set up a LDAP server that the Free/Busy URL can be retrieved via LDAP and thus, the system administrator can setup the LDAP for this purpose. However, this require additional admin work. As PCS -> /home//evolution/local/Calendar/calendar.ics, I am wondering is there any way to configure evolution to read other user PCS at all. ...

Re: [Evolution-hackers] calendar server for evolution?
Hello Evolution comes with a Calendar server called PCS (Personal Calendar Server http://www.ximian.com/devzone/tech/calendar.html). This is, AFAIK not a full-blown multiuser Calendar Server. I would definitely be interested in contributing code to a project for the development of a multiuser rfc2445 compliant calendar server, since this is the *one* outstanding component to enable complete independence from MS Exchange. There is currently work underway at www.reefknot.org on a PERL implementation, but c++ is my prefered language :).
