ZScheduler already exists, it's just very buggy.

Check the mail archives for 'ZScheduler' and have a look at:

I think the largest obstacle is the lack of a scheduler or timer class
in Zope. It simply doesn't create events for you...
As far as I can see it's not possible to create a scheduler as a simple
product, because it has to run all the time, in the background. thus it
actually has to become some part of the Zope server itself.

What I can tell you is this: if you develop a "ZScheduler" and it
becomes part of the Zope Standard distribution, the Zope community will
be VERY glad.

[Zope] does this app exist?

2000-05-22 Thread paul beard

We're considering using zope to handle some internal groupware-type
functions, with WorldPilot as the base. What we need is the true Outlook
killer: scheduling. Any word on this as a feature to WorldPilot or hints
on how hard this would be implement? 

By scheduling, I mean the notion of creating an event, inviting others to
it via email or WorldPilot, and booking resources like meeting rooms
against it.
