I am not a developer on the project but I've been using Chandler daily for a couple of years now and I also own an XO-1 laptop. Based on my experience with the app and the laptop, I don't think they would be a good match right now. XO just doesn't have the CPU power or memory to run Chandler.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear Chandler devs, My name is Ben Schwartz, and I'm a volunteer with OLPC (the One Laptop Per Child foundation) and Sugar Labs, the spinoff charitable foundation working on the OLPC system software. That software is called Sugar, and it implements a new UI for mobile devices. Its design is intended to enable easy collaboration, communication, and presence, with the end goal being to improve education. Technologically, Sugar is implemented primarily using Python and GTK, as well as some other components of the Gnome and FD.o stack. Obviously, Chandler and Sugar have a lot in common. Sugar currently lacks a PIM/calendaring application. Chandler might be well suited for this, especially from the perspective of the Chandler mobile-devices target (Sugar is targeted at the new ultralight subnotebooks that Intel is calling "netbooks"). I doubt that Sugar Labs or OLPC would be able to provide funding for Chandler, though these things are far out of my purview. However, OLPC controls over 550,000 currently deployed Linux laptops, and Chandler could easily be installed on virtually all of them in a matter of months if a compatible version can be developed. My hope is that such an install base would prove valuable to the Chandler organization, not to mention the users. I would like to start a dialogue between the Sugar development community and the Chandler developers. I'm not sure what the best forum is for this discussion. I know very little about Chandler. I would like to learn more.
