Greetings
We are looking for a calendar server for a client.
They are currently using Thunderbird clients under Win-XP talking to
their IMAP server (Dovecot) on a fedora box.
For calendaring, they currently use k5en.us WebCalendar - this is used
for both calendaring for staff and bookings for resources (rooms and
equipment) on a first come first served basis. This application also
allows them to look at a composite view of a subset of calendar data (ie
"Engineers" or "Managers" or "Rooms" to see what is available and when.
We want to switch the calendar function across to Lightning so that they
have the ability to create events and to-do's from email but they must
keep all of the functionality they currently have.
For a calendar srver so far we have tried:
A) WebCalendar's php routine icalclient.php
B) SoGo
C) Really Simple CalDav Store
but each of these has a few holes in them. Of all of them, SoGo looks
favourite esp. considering that it allows a full web interface for when
employees are off site, but according to the developers it currently
lacks the ability to book resources (on the to do list) and does not
support composite views.
Has anyone else been down this path so far with any success? Would
appreciate any pointers suggestions etc (short of taxidermy or exchange
server!).
TIA
Nigel.
