(2005-05-30) Osaf Cosmo Scooby Servers

OSAF is aiming toward 2 different server apps

  • CosMo is a sharing server. It is smarter than a garden-variety WebDAV server, because it understands the characteristics of certain types of content (calendars, for instance). This allows the server to present multiple equivalent views of the same resource for different clients (ex. a monolithic iCalendar calendar for Apple ICal, individual iCalendar calendars and events for CalDAV clients like Mozilla SunBird, and HTML directory indexes for web browsers).

  • Scooby is a WebApp that serves data from a CosMo repository.

There's already a library which Chandler has been using to Data Synch over HTTP.
