Hi Noam,
The main goal of this project originally was to provide a browser based alternative for a common e-mail application such as Mozilla Thunderbird, Apple Mail, Outlook, etc. I was also thinking about adding interesting features such as a calendar, RSS reader, or virtual hard disk but for later on.
Any development would be welcome but as Jasper and Praneet already mentioned, the main goal will be making the webmail and address book work properly and to have a clean framework on both the server and the client.
There's no reason why should not start developing a calendar module but do not expect too much help from our developers yet. Also the structure of the client and the server could change in some ways. If you're familiar with CVS please try to update your development files periodically with the CVS version in order to have your copy ready to add to the official version.
I would also suggest to have a look a the PHPiCalendar project which currently provides a read-only implementation of the iCal standard.
Regards, Thomas

Hi,
I started working on a Calendar preview for RoundCube, as this is a major issue for web mail users - at least in my company - and current solutions don't offer any options to do (Squirrelmail for example).
Three things:
- I would like to hear about other's thoughts on this
- I would like to hear about someone else's experience with parsing iCal in
PHP (I have done work under Perl by using modules) 3) I would like to hear how such integration would be expected... I am planning on building a calendar view, not a single entry viewer for the items... i.e. you would see today/week/month's events
