Calendar Beta
Introduction
We developed a web-based calendar application for the Maemo community. The project focuses on adapting the calendar user interface to fit the devices such as Nokia 770 and N800 taking into account the screen resolution and limitations like difficulty of drag-and-drop with the stylus. The worldwide nature of the Maemo community is also be taken into account by supporting good timezone awareness.
Beta documentation can be found on this blog post: http://protoblogr.net/blog/view/maemo_community_calendar.html
