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!
-We have a mailing list - if you're interested in helping design the app, or if you just want to hear more about what we're up to, just blanche yourself onto **clockworks**.

## Development info
### What to do?
-* Configure the default TurboGears scaffolding
+* [Configure](http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/Configuration?action=show&redirect=1.0%2FGettingStarted%2FConfiguration) 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)
+* <del>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) (**ezyang**)</del>
* 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)
+* Learn TurboGear's templating interface (would like XSLT, but I don't think anyone else will like that)
+* <del>Setup a zephyrbot that watches the repository</del>
### Architecture
* Python and Turbogears
* Git repository
* Use 15 minute timeslices to simplify interface (?)
+* AJAX (?)
### Principles
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
