Server-based Calendaring Solutions:

These are the different calendaring solutions I am looking at so we can do a fair evalution. My intention is to weed out as many as possible and then install the others so we can look at them.

I've rejected a bunch and have 10 to look at a little more closely. After that, I'll whittle it down to 3 or 4 to install and play with.

Rejected:
 * CS Calendar Server (abandoned)
 * CyberScheduler (proprietary)
 * Cybozu Share360 (proprietary)
 * DogFood (abandoned)
 * eGroupWare (calendar is an afterthought)
 * Favorin Time (proprietary)
 * ICAP Server (immature)
 * Internal Affairs (German only as far as I can tell)
 * MeetingMaker (proprietary)
 * MimerDesk (jack of all trades, master of none)
 * MRBS (for booking meeting rooms only)
 * mod_perl Calendar System (abandoned)
 * Momentum Project (abandoned)
 * MyPHPCalendar (immature)
 * NullLogic Groupware (way overkill)
 * OpenCAP (abandoned)
 * OpenSched (project management)
 * Obliquid (framework - too much work, but interesting)
 * PHP iCalendar (iCalendar itself is view-only)
 * PHProjekt (project scheduling, but it looks good)
 * Prospector (for single users only)
 * ScheduleWorld (proprietary)
 * SKYRiX ZideStore (proprietary)
 * Samsung Contact (proprietary)
 * Sun Java System Calendar Server (proprietary)
 * TUTOS (team organization - scheduling is a part)
 * UW Calendar (university calendaring - WAY overkill)
 * VisualCalendar (proprietary)
 * Webo Web Organizer (kludgey)
 * WebCalNG (proprietary)

To Be Investigated:


 * Chronos 
 * PBCS 
 * phpGroupWare 
 * Java iCal Group Scheduler 
 * Kolab Server 
 * Kronolith 
 * Minkowsky 
 * OpenGroupware.org 
 * OpenPSA 
 * WebCalendar
