So anything? Any news. I’ve just checked out the sources for Chandler1, and Chandler2 and there has been no activity ( via svn log ) since late 2009.

Does anyone know what happened? Can they please put up a summary post at least as to what occurred?

A triage of what went wrong might be very helpful to the community at large.

So a +1 to Joe’s request.

I also would like to read a blog post that tells us what happened, what went wrong, and whether there is still some life in OSAF/Chandler Project. Are or were there some complexities relating to implementing WebDAV / CalDAV / iCalendar support? Are there some obvious holes in the functionality offered by those standards? Is / are the server and client too tightly coupled? Is there a perfectionism issue?

If the project is still alive, tell us what you think is necessary to get some more development activity, including links to your source control, coding standards, bug tracking, and road map.

Chandler rocks. I’ve tried numerous other apps with no joy. Chandler just seems to work like my mind.

Keep up the good work.

Won’t install on Mint or any Ubuntu based distros from 1.0.4 on. Shame. Seems like it was a worthwhile piece of software. I assume the project is basically dead – is that fair? If not, a response might be good.

I second the request of joe – a blog post on what happened with Chandler as a project, is it still being developed, etc., would be very interesting.

Perhaps an iPhone or Android client would spark open source developer interest.

It says “So, for Jaunty users only, there are now Chandler 1.0.3.1 Debian packages available here.” But I don’t get anywhere by clicking on “here”, it just loads the same page… So where’s the 1.0.3.1 packages? Tnx…

This project looks so promising, but after six years of blogging, it just stops…I’m contemplating starting to use the software, but I don’t want it to be obsolete as soon as I get going! Any news?
