-[[!meta title="Doodle Killer"]]
+[[!meta title="Clockworks"]]
Hey guys, I heard there was this app called [Doodle](http://www.doodle.com/main.html). It's closed source. Let's make an open-source Doodle killer and call it Clockworks!
* Too much clicking
* No obvious "I can, but would rather not"
+### What to do?
+
+* Configure the default TurboGears scaffolding
+* Work through the [TurboGears tutorial](http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/Wiki20/Page1) (the tutorial seems to focus on SQLObject, which is not necessarily the best thing. Maybe someone can find some better docs?)
+* Setup database configuration and installer (an auxiliary issue is the presence of an installer for people). Also, make sure SQLAlchemy is being used
+* Learn SQLAlchemy
+* Make sure the default scaffolding works on Scripts (this includes running TurboGears as CGI). Any work done here should be considered for a TurboGears auto-installer, the equivalent of tgsetup)
+* Write a .gitignore file for generated/not versionable items
+* Get friendly URLs working
+* Learn TurboGear's templating interface (ezyang would like XSLT, but I don't think anyone else will let him use that)
+
### Architecture
* Python and Turbogears
Doodle killer. Extra features. Pump it up.
* Integration
- * Basic: integration with ICS calendars, GoogleCalenar, Exchange, and TechTime (for faculty)
+ * Basic: integration with ICS calendars, GoogleCalendar, Exchange, and TechTime (for faculty)
* Advanced: integration with MIT's course schedules, Facebook
* Would store persistent profiles of calendar data for users
* Automatically prioritize and schedule events for you
