I almost forgot. Take a look at Funambol:

It is used, for example, by Scheduleworld: http://scheduleworld.com/

Zimbra is working well for us. It is a full groupware suite, which is
great
if you want that kind of convenience/integration, but probably a
tad extreme if
you just want a calendar server. It has a very nice Web
client (feels almost
like a desktop app) and supports a range of open
protocols (so you can hook
into it with Thunderbird, etc. very
easily).

If you want something
really easy, you could sync to Google Calendar
(recognising that you're handing
control of your data to Google).

Zimbra is working well for us. It is a full groupware suite, which is
great if you want that kind of convenience/integration, but probably a
tad extreme if you just want a calendar server. It has a very nice Web
client (feels almost like a desktop app) and supports a range of open

Re: [SLUG] Calendar Server

2009-05-01 Thread Glen Turner

Bedework is popular at universities, mainly because it easily
deals with multiple calendars per user and talks to everything
but Exchange clients (which is squarely in their plans).

It may be a bit over-the-top for a small company's needs.

[SLUG] Calendar Server

2009-04-30 Thread Nigel Allen

Greetings

We are looking for a calendar server for a client.

They are currently using Thunderbird clients under Win-XP talking to 
their IMAP server (Dovecot) on a fedora box.


For calendaring, they currently use k5en.us WebCalendar - this is used 
for both calendaring for staff and bookings for resources (rooms and 
equipment) on a first come first served basis. This application also 
allows them to look at a composite view of a subset of calendar data (ie 
"Engineers" or "Managers" or "Rooms" to see what is available and when.


We want to switch the calendar function across to Lightning so that they 
have the ability to create events and to-do's from email but they must 
keep all of the functionality they currently have.


For a calendar srver so far we have tried:

A) WebCalendar's php routine icalclient.php
B) SoGo
C) Really Simple CalDav Store

but each of these has a few holes in them. Of all of them, SoGo looks 
favourite esp. considering that it allows a full web interface for when 
employees are off site, but  according to the developers it currently 
lacks the ability to book resources (on the to do list) and does not 
support composite views.


Has anyone else been down this path so far with any success? Would 
appreciate any pointers suggestions etc (short of taxidermy or exchange 
server!).


TIA

Nigel.

Last time we looked at the SUN calendar product, it was missing Wednesday's

TBH, I've never been able to get Zimbra to work correctly for me - it
suffers from timezoning and caldav compatibility issues (Evolution
won't work against the version I am using, at least).

What sort of problems? I'm having some problems responding to meeting

The SLUG calendar does not seem to reflect upcoming events.  Is the
calendar no longer used?

I ask because I plugged the SLUG calendar into my Google calendar and
nothing showed up.  I used the following link to the SLUG calendar:

Hi Peter,

If you are running the standard Sharp ROM, check out:
  www.thekompany.com

I haven't used it, but it could be what you are after (although it does
cost). The calendar that comes with Opie is also quite good (part of
Openzaurus):
  www.openzaurus.com

You could also try flashing the Zaurus to a newer Sharp or Openzaurus ROM.

Hope that helps,


Dave.
