Could this be what I had in mind? I'm thinking more along the lines of a platform versus a product, yet this could be interesting. Do you think there's enough consensus for the community to work together on this one? Or will we have several niche systems instead? I'd prefer that latter, personally.
Zope 3 will be such a platform without a doubt. But we have to focus on Zope 2 for now. We're aiming at maximum componentization in the context of Zope 2, but I'm not sure if you'll be able to call the result a platform rather than a product. In any case I'm pretty sure there will never be only one true groupware solution with Zope 2, people's needs vary too much. Florent

There is a European project called "GroupZope" which will provide integration with IMAP and LDAP. The Nuxeo people may be able to tell more.
Are there anyone on this list who can give information about progress and give licensing/availability info?
This is a project for which we have already committed resources, but the IMAP part hasn't started. The LDAP client part is designed to interact with directories using configurable schemas, and is being currently worked on.
We will have a visible product this summer. It will be released under an Open Source license.
Unlike your proposal, they plan to integrate with existing OpenSource protocol servers. I, too, think this is a better idea than to make Zope learn all different protocols itself.
What servers OpenLDAP? Cyrus? Jabber? Any info would be helpful.
Interaction with IMAP and LDAP servers, yes. Jabber is not in the current plans, even though we're thinking about it. -- Florent Guillaume, Nuxeo (Paris, France) +33 1 40 33 79 10 http://nuxeo.com mailto:fg@nuxeo.com
