[calendaring] [ANN] mxmCalendarTypes 2.0

[Max M <ma...@mx...>]

The built in calendar types in Plone are pretty simple and not really
suitable for writing advanced calendar applications.

mxmCalendarTypes is a collection of content types that are usefull for that.

It does not have a calendar interface in itself, but is easy to add to 
other calendars.

mxmCalendartypes consists of three new content types: 'mxmEvent', 
'mxmTodo', 'mxmJournal'.

mxmCalendarTypes have several extra and enhanced features

     iCalender

         - Support for a far larger subset of the icalendar standard.
         - Better import/export. (Import is by using next version of
           mxm_icaltool)

     Attendees list

         - Advanced management interface for attendees.
         - Attendees can be added to events. Both members and non members.
         - They can be exported correctly to ical.

         - Attendees can set their own status on the event, without having
           editing permission.
         - Their role in the event can be defined.
         - The attendees can be email notified about events.
         - The organizer can receive email notifications when attendees 
change
           their participation status.

     Individual subjects

         - Because they are different content types, they do not need to 
share
           subjects.

     Priroity of the event

         - Events can be prioritized for better sorting.

     Global event status

         - Like another workflow state.

     "Free Time" search

         - Need to find a free hour when the attendees have time to meet 
next?
           That is built in.

     Enhanced Todo/Task content type

         - Much better for project management tasks.
         - Start, due and completion date.
         - Allocated time for todo.
         - Percent completed.
         - Time used by individual attendees on todo.
         - Estimated time left calculated by time used and percent 
completed.

     "Your used time"

         - The used time and attendee status can be set by the member, 
if the event
           is visible to that member.

TODO

     - Saving of additional ical data
