  • Parcel? - Parcels are Chandler's components, units of modularity and extensibility. Outside of the core subsystems, most of Chandler is written in Parcels. Third parties will be able to extend Chandler by writing their own Parcels. A Parcel is not necessarily a place that the user "visits" in the UI, but a set of Items? that get loaded into the Repository?. A Parcel might include domain specific schema Items? (Kinds? and Attributes?), items that represent Views?, Agent items, even user data items. A Parcel might also include python code, images, and other resources, referred to by the items in the Parcel.
