The Chandler Project is pleased to announce the 0.16.0 release of Chandler Server (Cosmo)!

Chandler Server is a server and Ajax web UI for managing and sharing calendars, events, and tasks. It implements open data standards including CalDAV, WebDAV, Atom, and Atompub.

This release introduces a new item detail view designed to drastically improve item editing workflows. It integrates a larger, expandable notes field, date pickers for appropriate fields and a cleaner design. Other significant changes in the Web UI include cleaner add/remove affordances, conditional use of WhatWG DOM Storage for login information and numerous minor usability and display tweaks.

On the server side, an upgrade to the 0.4.0 version of Abdera, the library used to build our Atompub service, brings the server up to date with the latest library API changes. Sharing capabilities with Apple’s iCal client have been enhanced by changes in the mapping from the internal server data model to iCalendar records. In addition, enhanced ETag and If-None-Match header support provide significant optimization opportunities for webcal clients.

Chandler Server 0.16.0 is available for download as a ready-to-run bundle at:
