[Lennart Regebro]

Paris, October 12, 2005 -- Nuxeo is happy to release CalCore 1.3.0

CalCore is an advanced, flexible calendaring component for Python. It
allows the Python developer do write advanced calendaring applications
either using their own event storage or integrating with external
calendar servers.

Features of the CalCore include among others:

   * Support for making private calendars, shared calendars, resource
     booking and more.
   * integration with iCalendar clients (Apple iCal, Mozilla Sunbird,
     KOrganizer...) using the iCalendar protocol,
   * invitation workflow,
   * meeting support, including helper functions to look for free time,
   * recurring event support (thanks to SchoolTools recurrence
     implementation, http://www.schooltool.org),
   * etc.

CalCore is being used as the core of Nuxeos CalZope and
CPSSharedCalendar products, products for integrating with Zope and CPS.
These products provide a complete web-based user interface to the
CalCore calendaring.

CalCore defines (but do not depend on) Zope 3 interfaces and schemas.It
also uses Max M's iCalendar module. These packages are all included in
the bundle tgz.
