SchoolTool uses the Zope 3 framework, which is also used somewhat in Plone. But we don't use Plone. > The main design objective for the interfacing is that i want students weekly > (or daily, monthly etc) performance to be sent via sms to parents by the > system based on subscription by the parents for such information. Simply sending a "Hello world" SMS from SchoolTool should be pretty easy -- Zope 3 is specifically designed to allow you to integrate external Python packages without having to make changes to them. There will be a fair number of moving parts in a system to do what you want, though, touching lots of parts of SchoolTool, so we'll definitely need to have some detailed discussions about how to design and implement it. --Tom _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~schooltool-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~schooltool-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
