[ale] Shared Calendar

[Alan Dobkin]

FYI, I haven't installed it yet, but the Horde Team just announced the 
new final release of their Kronolith Calendar Application, along with a 
whole suite of other updated web-based applications.  It offers shared 
calendars and looks very promising.

After three years of work, the Horde Team is proud to announce the final
release of the Kronolith Calendar Application version H3 (2.0).

Kronolith is the Horde calendar application.  It provides web-based 
calendars
backed by a SQL database, the MCAL library, or a Kolab server.  Supported
features include shared calendars, remote calendars, meeting management,
alarms, recurring events, and a sophisticated day/week view which handles
arbitrary numbers of overlapping events.

The major changes compared to the Kronolith 1.x versions are:
     * Shared calendars.
     * Meeting management through iCalendar and iTip messages.
     * Event reminders through email.
     * iCalendar import and export.
     * Generation of free/busy information.
     * Remote calendars.
     * Kolab server support.
     * Search capability.
     * Access keys.

The Kronolith H3 (2.0) distribution is available from the following 
locations:

     ftp://ftp.horde.org/pub/kronolith/kronolith-h3-2.0.tar.gz
     http://ftp.horde.org/pub/kronolith/kronolith-h3-2.0.tar.gz

Or, for quicker access, download from your nearest mirror:

Have fun!

The Horde Team.
