I'd like to put this in Zone. Do you have any plans for expansion?
See. That what happens when you get Ty and me together... I complain a lot and tell Ty what I wish I had, and Ty goes away for a few hours and comes up with these jewels. :^) Actually, Ty said he had been thinking of it already, but he's gonna have to learn not to tell me that kind of information because I'll begin to question his zenhood. My suggestions were to provide a mechanism for managing a calendar 'wrapper' which could hold or reference other objects. I.e. you could either drop other Zope objects into a date or point at them somehow. Ty came up with the dtml extension to manage the calendar but we aren't quite sure how to hook things into it. Were hoping to get some suggestions. Also there's the question of 'look'. How much flexibility is needed in customizing the 'look' of the calendar? Is it just easier to take an example and write your own or is it worth it to try to build an editable folderish calendar product? What for? Well, I'm tasked with wrapping up the whole population genetics department into a publishable object where I just hired on, including all the genetics databases, management statistics and department scheduler sorts of things. They said they'd understand if it took me a while. :^) I'm mainly wandering around looking for ideas on how to cause trouble right now... I gave a talk on three of the projects I've worked on the last year and mgment's (I get to work with intelligent monkeys at this job :^) eyes lit up and they got all excited. So please give Ty some more ideas for this calendar thingy! How would you use it? what sorts of things would you want it to contain? Kent
