Has the hula hoop fallen?
Apr. 6th, 2006 05:05 pmLast weekend I found myself looking for something to hack on that wasn't something I see during my work day. I took a look at Hula. I've wanted something like this for use at home. It would be nice if ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
auzure_skies and I could see one another's calendar, have our own Jabber server, and have easy access to our email through a local client or through webmail.
There seem to be a steady stream of commits to Hula's SVN, but almost no discussion on the mailing list. I've sent in one patch to the Makefile so that make dist would run (accepted), and sent another asking for design information (No answer yet). In general, the codebase seems crufted with a bunch of legacy NetWare concepts. It's written in at least four languages (C, C , C#, and Python) and doesn't seem to have a testsuite. The code also currently doesn't run on powerpc without segfaulting.
Ah well. Anyone know if there's another project that has similar aims and goals? Basically some sort of server software that will handle almost all of what evolution can hand to it, plus some sort of extensible interface so that it's reasonably easy to add things like Jabber servers, RSS/Atom Aggregators, etc.
