That sounds cool.
In order to use this, I need to setup a php apache
server?
For the implmentation I am working on, yes.
Once I have everything defined someone with more working knowledge of
C++ can re-implement a version of the services for possible better
performance.
3) Messaging. I have been fiddling with some
SOAP/XML-RPC wrapper to
IMAP, POP3 and NNTP calls. There is already an
Cool, that will allow POP3 access?
Right. The web service takes the requests over xml-rpc/soap then turns
around and talks to the true data store (pop3, imap, nntp) to get the
data. Then packages that back up and returns it in soap/xml-rpc form.
Basicly in the end I figure phpGroupWare would be a
client that
generates a web interface.
What about an interface description language?
Right now I have been doing everything with xml-rpc and am using its own
introspection abilities. When I get to SOAP I plan to use WSDL and think
that the way the functions are being documented for xml-rpc should be
able to produce the WSDL fine.
Right now I am calling this new server the GroupWare
Freedom Server
(GWFS) just so that I have something to call it
while talking about it.
I would be interested in looking into this sometime.
Where will it be hosted? CVS?
I suppose I will have to setup a project on Savannah next week when I
expect to release the inital services. For now I am not ready to release
my code so its all local (with backups to tape).
