A package was submitted to savannah.nongnu.org
This mail was sent to address@hidden, address@hidden
Jules Colding <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License:
Package: Brutus - Collaboration Framework
System name: brutus
Type: non-GNU
Description:
Brutus is a development framework that makes it possible for Free Software to
access a Microsoft Exchange server.
I know that I hereby by necessity are depending on a very non-free program for
the first version of Brutus, but I feel that it is important for free software
to be able to access Exchange on an equal footing with MS Outlook. A free
replacement for Outlook is thereby possible and will enable organizations to
deploy desktops which are solely build upon free software.
Another important point is that a native Brutus server, replacing Exchange, is
a logical and inevitable consequence of widespread client acceptance of the
Brutus API (thereby the historical reference for the name "Brutus").
Brutus is a complete wrapping of all of MAPI into a (large) set of CORBA
interfaces. Source is available at
<http://www.omesc.com/content/downloads/index.php> and there is more technical
information on the site.
Other Software Required:
TAO and ACE for the server. No dependencies for the client except for some
CORBA implementation e.g. ORBit2.
