Hello Group, It's been a long time since the last status or milestone.
The project is not dead, but I do need some help moving things forward. The biggest issues I've heard from people involved in Open Connector testing so far has concerned performance and stability. But an important prerequisite to performance optimization and refactoring for stability is the completion of the documentation of the internal Outlook APIs that affect us. If we optimize prematurely, we will make design decisions that will have to be undone to continue adding new features since we do not now what the missing API looks like. Now factoring in the minimal development time available, you can see how undoing/redoing developed features would be a very bad thing. Currently the biggest blocking bug for Milestone 4 and subsequent development is the documentation of the "Outlook Calendar Sharing" feature. This feature is not documented anywhere on the internet I've found. The requirements for supporting calendar sharing will also influence our current object model heavily, so there is not much sense continuing development without it. Documentation will take 4-8 weeks of fulltime development to document this feature. That is currently more time than I have to donate to the project, so I really can't start. If anyone believes they can help with this documentation please let me know.
