Desktop Team
The Desktop Team is focused on building Chandler's Desktop Application.
At the application level, this includes WxWidgets, WxPython, Application Chrome (Toolbars, Sidebar, Menus, Keyboard Controls, etc.), Calendar Views, Dashboard View and Detail View.
At the platform level, this includes the Repository Subsystem, Calendar Service, Email and Sharing Services, the overall Architecture including Performance, Security, and i18n / Localization, the Domain Model and a framework for extending Chandler Desktop.
We are helped in our effort by an enthusiastic team of in house interns and SoC students.

Geek Talks
We also have code design discussions (GeekTalks) on a regular basis (Thursdays 1:15pm US/Pacific) where we cover more in depth technical problems. We usually decide of holding those meetings when we hit some issue that becomes too involve to deal with entirely during our regular team meeting.

Current Plan
Since Preview shipped (September 10th 2007), we're embarking on a trip to hit a "non-Preview" version. Some pointers:
- Current 3-months plan: PPD cooked up list of bugs we should fix for 1.0 plus a short list of high priority items for the next three months
- 0.7.x Release Process: Following Preview, we decided to switch the release process to schedule driven releases rather than feature driven releases. We're committed to release a new version of Chandler Desktop every month.
- 0.7.x schedule: The upcoming milestones up to the 0.7.5 version
