We're considering using zope to handle some internal groupware-type functions, with WorldPilot as the base. What we need is the true Outlook killer: scheduling. Any word on this as a feature to WorldPilot or hints on how hard this would be implement?
I think the largest obstacle is the lack of a scheduler or timer class in Zope. It simply doesn't create events for you... As far as I can see it's not possible to create a scheduler as a simple product, because it has to run all the time, in the background. thus it actually has to become some part of the Zope server itself. What I can tell you is this: if you develop a "ZScheduler" and it becomes part of the Zope Standard distribution, the Zope community will be VERY glad. greetings, Heiko Stoermer -- heiko.stoermer@innominate.de innominate AG networkingpeople fon: +49.30.308806-0 fax: -77 web: http://innominate.de
