The Chandler Project Blog » Blog Archive » Thunderbird Plugin For Chandler - 0 views

    On one hand: I'd prefer to see Chandler-oriented extensions to iCal and/or Mail in Mac OS X. On the other hand, extending key applications in that way could raise unrealistic expectations of what should be seen in (for example) Calendar in iPhone OS 3.0.

    http://n2.nabble.com/-tp2951656p2951656.html suggests a Chandler triage application for iPhone OS. I'd like to see comparable widgets for Dashboard in Mac OS X. I assume that such things could be at least partially portable to other platforms.
