What exactly do you mean? Sounds like you’d like it to got straight into Twisted? Wouldn’t it make more sense to release it separately first? You know, kind of http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2013/07 /rule-of-three.html
That's also a possibility, but following that rule makes the assumption that Calendar Server is just one application, when it's at least two (calendar & contacts) ;-).
We could move it into the twisted namespace though.
The main motivation to do this, especially with adbapi2, is because Twisted already has an implementation of this exact thing with some deficiencies.
As far as I can tell, there's nothing stopping Hynek from grabbing all the code and releasing it as a separate project. It seems like this would get the ball rolling more quickly and I don't see the downside. If anything, having it as an independent project is more likely to get more people interested in it more quickly and so increase the pool of people who might be interested in addressing whatever concerns need to be addressed for its inclusion in Twisted. So, why block that work in favor of inclusion directly in Twisted? Jean-Paul
