Hi, Nitin
For high level aspects of the user interaction design, Mimi can
probably help out. One source of information is the UI specifications
that can be found here. These are the ones that touch on UI aspects of
the data model:
http://svn.osafoundation.org/docs/trunk/docs/specs/rel0_7/Dashboard-0.7.html
http://svn.osafoundation.org/docs/trunk/docs/specs/rel0_7/Stamping-0.7.html
http://svn.osafoundation.org/docs/trunk/docs/specs/rel0_7/SummaryTable-0.7.html
On the code side, I'd start out with the high-level overview
http://svn.osafoundation.org/chandler/trunk/chandler/distrib/docs/overview.html
(in particular, the "Domain Model" and "Collections and Notifications"
sections). For more detailed information, I'd go with notes from a
couple of presentations made by developers:
http://chandlerproject.org/Journal/CollectionMeeting20060512
http://chandlerproject.org/Journal/ChandlerModelGrantForScooby
Also, to understand the schema API (which is what basically all
persistent information in Chandler uses), see:
http://svn.osafoundation.org/chandler/trunk/chandler/distrib/docs/parcel-schema-guide.html
There's also more detailed information on how stamping is implemented
here:

Hi Grant,
Thanks for your response.
I need to understand the desktop application first. As a result, I am
looking for all the relevant information for the desktop client. To
start
with, it will be of great help if I can get the first 2 which you
mentioned.
Besides this, if you can provide me any link which explains the
database
schema used in the latest version of the Chandler desktop client, it
will be
great.
Thanks for all your help and the great work you are doing.
Cheers,
Nitin

Hi All,
I am new to Chandler application. I am interested in contributing
towards the development of this application as I am also working in
the domain of Online collaboration and PIM. This way I can also
learn more.
I request the group to point me to the design documents for the
chandler application. More particularly, I am looking for the data
model of the application.
Hi, Nitin
I'd be happy to collect some links for you, but I'm not sure which of
the following you meant:
1. The user interaction design of the data model
2. The design of the data model code in the desktop application
3. The design of the data model code in the web application
(actually, 3 could be either the javascript client side of the web
app, or the java code running on the server, so I guess there's a 4th
possiblity :o).
