Chandler and Drupal

Chandler is cross platform (Linux, Windows, Mac) Email, Information Management, and Collaboration software.

Open source free software arriving in time to help Agaric coordinate?

Chandler and Drupal integration (e.g., tags with taxonomy and some sort of coordination with the casetracker module) would be wonderful. Now's a great time to get Drupal people involved in guiding this, as Chandler is still in development and we could be sure it provides the hooks for Drupal to XML-RPC intelligently with it.

From the Chandler vision statement:

We want Chandler to be able to talk to other applications, which is one of the reasons that we've tried to make Chandler use existing standards whenever possible. Today, due to standards like iCalendar and CalDAV, Chandler has support for talking to several calendaring applications. We'd like to expand that list significantly, and also provide support for talking to to-do list managers and so forth. As we make Chandler's end-user information model richer, the number of interesting applications to talk to will increase. This is one of the many areas where we hope that people in the community will help increase Chandler's ability to talk to other applications, whether than means writing documentation and tutorials, reporting bugs, or writing data format converters.
