We are also thinking about implementing some sort of calendar in trac. It would need to send reminders. I think it's best to have a daemon running, like cron or something similar, or maybe even a custom job, and building a Trac plugin to that gives it a web UI. It should be extensible so ppl can implement all sorts of crazy things like closing tickets after no activity for x days. Even if it could just schedule an http callback with some sort of UID to remember what the task was. I don't like the polling idea either. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Development" group.
