I think that having a real life iTIP daemon would be VERY cool. I dont
think it is a total package tho. Just as to say that IMAP does not a
groupware system make. IMAP is a piece, as is iTIP. It may very well be
that the data ends up being stored in an iTIP daemon (or a sql table...
admin choice), but there needs to be a single consitent framework that
covers IMAP, iTIP, LDAP (addresbook), etc etc...
This is what I am working on. This is the full backend for a groupware
system and it is only a piece, but it is the peice taht developer
program against.
