Fwd: Open Calendar: Reccurence events support
Hi
I was going through the Apache GSOC 2014 ideas and came across the
recurrence event support. In order to get more information, I had gone
through open meeting homepage and got an overall idea of the purpose of the
application.
I had gone through several repeating events support in different
applications. I was very much inspired by the repeating event support in
the Outlook Calendar. The creation of events in Outlook and OpenMeeting
look pretty similar which i had seen in the screenshots of the Calendar of
OpenMeeting.
But I think in Outllook we need to specify that it is a recurrence event
before creating one as it is a separate dedicated feature . Hence we could
differ in this aspect by giving the user an option of making any event he
creates a repeating event at the time of event creation itself. Also if he
forgot to make the event repeating at time of creation we can further give
an option of add/create a repeating event , here add meaning converting an
already existing event into recurring and create meaning to create a new
recurring event altogether.
I have been browsing the net about openMeeting and have got an ovverall
idea. But i think to proceed further in order to contribute to the project
I would need assistance. Hence I kindly request you to guide me through the
project.
About myself : I am currently in my final year of Computer Science from
BITS Pilani, ranked among top 6 colleges in India. I am currently pursuing
an internship at Consilium Inc. which develops products in the field of
Unified Communications. Through my work over here I have gained experience
to work on .NET framework. I have been assigned their product Uni-Agent.
Hence I have a good developer experience and not a freshly graduating
student with only academic projects.
I would be eagerly looking forward to your reply and towards you
assistance in getting a better understanding of the project.
Thank You
J.Bharath

Sorry my bad.
Might be worth updating the main web site to show the maximum Ant version instead of just the minimum.

Hi Bharath,
It's nice to meet you!
as a first step I would suggest you:
1). To try it on demo.dataved.ru/openmeetings - there is a free
registration here, and after you registered and signed in just select the
Home -> Calendar menu item to get to the OpenMeetings calendar. Here you
can check how it works, etc.
2). Check out OpenMeetings sources from svn and install it on your
workstation.
3). Inspect the sources and database structure.
Currently calendar structure is very easy - there is a table named
appointments which contains info about the calendar events. You would need
to invent a structure of the database tables for the ical objects storing.
Actually, a lot of improvements can be done here: iCal spec describes
difficult types of the recurrences/ reminder and guests, recurrence
exceptions, etc.
Please fill free to ask more questions.
Best regards,
Irina
