There's probably several of us who are doing some things along these
lines, in our own separate worlds.  Right now I'm actively working on
document management (with workflow, versioning, and some aspects of
project management) and I have recently been reading the WebDAV specs
with the strong desire to implement something with it.

The Wiki I've been working on goes with some of these ideas, and could
be something to work on as a group (http://wiki.colorstudy.net) -- it's
actually easier for me to share stuff with this, because I don't feel
the pressure of expediency towards it (because of commercial concerns),
while it still has a lot of important ideas towards groupware.  It can
be a lot of effort to distill code I've written into something other
people can do much with.  However, how such collaboration would actually
work I'm not sure (CVS?  Separate trees and patches?)

WebDAV would also probably be a good place for collaboration, because
the target is very clearly defined -- implementing WebDAV.  The Python
WebDAV implementation (http://www.webdav.de) is actually not very long
(2000 lines) -- it's based on BaseHTTPServer and I'm not sure if it's
worth porting, but it's worth looking at closely.  The spec was quite
approachable, though I haven't worked with XML a ton and I'm not sure
how I'd do that part.  To do WebDAV, we'd also have to fix the URL
handling in Webware, because URLs are so central to WebDAV.

Some of the other points -- calendars and such -- need to be implemented
before the group can work on them.  It doesn't seem like group-designed
projects work; one individual has to write the core, and then there can
be some sharing.
