CalConnect interoperability meeting next week is a key milestone With 0.5 release, brave early developers can start experimenting and contributing –PyCon (late March) major event to get word out WAC technical meeting scheduled for April 2005 to gather next level of higher ed requirements UW & UCB volunteered to be “seed” sites for early Chandler usage

3 News 0.4 released end Oct 2004 0.5 scheduled for Mar 2005 Initiated plans for separate server project OSAF becomes founding member CalConnect Consortium Nov CalConnect interoperability event next week (Jan 10th) CalDAV IETF Draft 4Draft 4 OSAF presentation at Educause 2004Educause 2004 OSAF to present at PyCon end Mar 2005PyCon

4 Server product plans Initiating a new open source project for next generation WebDAV server –First step towards accelerating Westwood requirements Teaming up with Isamet (formerly Cyrusoft) Current plan is to base server on the Apache Jakarta Slide project Server product and architecture will be basis for –Kibble hosting service –CalDAV server –Westwood central server Key next step is to hire server developer

5 0.5 plan Goal: First attempt at day-to-day OSAF calendaring use –Manual import/export of data. No auto-recover. Expect crashes –Will benchmark performance but not yet ready to set perf. goals Calendar features –Calendar summary and detail views –Reminders and All day events –Mini-calendar browser and daily summary on sidebar Collections sharing (rev 2) –End-to-end sharing workflow Incremental infrastructure (e.g. email attachments, access controls) Reliability, performance and UI improvements More details at ZeroPointFivePlanningZeroPointFivePlanning
