[comp.windows.x] Calendars

geeb@med.umich.edu (Mark A. Gebert) (04/08/91)

Does anyone know of a Calendar program that has the following features:

1) Overlay Calendars.... The ability to look at more than one calendar at
the same time.
2) Full Appointment Management... When someone other than you inserts an 
appointment in your calendar... the Calendar will send you a message that
person X inserted the following appointment on this day
3) Built to be used on a network... Sun's is a cutisy hack, since the info
stored on machine x isn't the same as the info stored on machine y (ie. 
geeb@hanson ins't the same as geeb@hendrix). Basically one central calendar
depository.
4) Written under X11R4.
5) Can be run on a dec or a sun.

Sun's cm is cool but is really a toy in the business world.

Syncronize from CrossWind.  It has all the features you list, and then
some.  Of course, it isn't a toy, so you will have to pay for it.  Last
time I checked, it was $100 per license.  But, I highly recomend it.
