  1. It's not easy (he say's from experience!) on Can We Finally Ditch Exchange? · · Score: 1

    I wrote (and GPL'd) a web-based e-mail and group scheduling system called GoMail, and even though figuring out MIME types for mail were the hardest part, the group scheduling was a pain in the ars that took a looong time to get working properly.

    I even integrated iCalendar support, so you could import Outlook meetings into GoMail, but that's a stopgap solution to my mind.

    Ideally I'd like to be able to integrate the server side (Python, Apache, mod_python) with an API that allows Outlook to think it's an Exchange server, or at least support the new web calendaring function in Outlook (although I have NOT checked that out very much yet...).

    We were never an Exchange shop, but I am (was?) certified on Domino in a previous life, and it was important to me that I only include the functions in GoMail that I saw users actually using.

    Now if I could only get the menus to work properly in Mozilla....

  2. Betcha no one thought (cares?) about this question on Ask Eric S. Raymond Anything · · Score: 1

    For Eric: Do you think we'll talk about, much less care, what operating system(s) we'll be using in 50 years?
