z-push Kolab backend

[Gunnar Wrobel]

Hi Alain,

if we work together on that it would be great to have a common workspace. Are you used to version control systems and if so do you have a specific preference? Would it be okay for Libertech to place the code in a public repository?

I personally have a preference for git at the moment and I tend to choose github.com as host for new projects. Sourceforge.net would be a fine alternative. Another possibility might be the Horde repository. For that we'd be fixed to github.com (as I'd need to relay your commits from there to the Horde repository). It would have the advantage of getting feedback from the Horde community though and releasing the code as PEAR package for installations would be easier.

You can defintiely expect me to contribute in the area of Kolab_Storage integration, package structure and unit testing.

Cheers,

Gunnar

This sounds really good. I looked at the code you used in 0.1 and was wondering if you'd be willing to collaborate on getting this supported directly in the Kolab server. 

I noticed that you do the IMAP handling directly. Is there a specific reason for that? You already use the Kolab_Format package for the XML parsing and I think using Kolab_Storage for the IMAP handling would make sense. Especially since you get caching of the Kolab objects that way. Accessing an IMAP folder with thousands of events or contacts should be significantly faster that way. 

But other than that I think it would be worth trying to get this into a package that can be distributed with the Kolab server. What do you think? 

Cheers, 

Gunnar
