Dear Sir/Ma'am, I am the new maintainer for the calendarserver and python-twisted-calendarserver. I have been working with the previous maintainer (Guido) closely in getting the latest version of calendarserver packaged.
Darwin's calendarserver is a standards-complaint calendar server which to my knowledge was the only caldav server in debian lenny. It would be of great benefit to debian users who are using calendarserver to have the latest version packaged into squeeze. This is because the latest version of calendarserver has some really nice features such as: - Updated NSS directory backend - PAM authentication for NSS directory backend - New LDAP directory service backend with PAM/LDAP authentication (already being used in a 150+ organization very actively) - Auto-upgrade of their calendar databases - Separate installation path of twisted-calendarserver so that it does not conflict with the debian twisted packages - Considerable lesser load on server because of the new directory caching - Most of the Debian bugs fixed There has been considerable effort gone into packaging the latest version of calendarserver and I am sure many debian users who are already using calendarserver stand to benefit considerably from it. I hope the release team shall consider pushing the latest version of calendarserver into squeeze. Thanks and Regards, Rahul. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
