Hi,

I'm a developer on the moregroupware project; I watch this project too 
with much interest.

Where possible, I believe groups working together is a great thing. 
We're definitely intereted in an exchange style server for our project, too.

There's obviously various ways one could implement the above source code.

A great thing to do would be to engineer a generic server that is a 
standalone, application-independent daemon that acts as the exchange 
replacement, which either directly manipulates a SQL database (and one 
can define how exactly this is done), or uses something like XML/SOAP to 
act as a 'middleware' between this and various groupware projects.

Does this make any sense?

Cheers,
