Yep. This is one option for me, but I need to implement server side authorisation to create calendars on the fly. I am hoping to avoid that step with a SaaS provider, if one exists.

Ask HN: Calendar as a service

Are there any companies or open source projects that provide calendar as a service. We want to be able to generate and store recurring or one-time events against a user Id and then query the same via API calls.Ex: If there are teachers who teach at specific times such asTeacher A - Every Tuesday 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM Teacher B - Every Wednesday and Friday 3:00 PM to 4:00 PMI want to be able to...

Is the link down? I get a blank page.
C&C - Red Alert 2 is the best RTS game I have played so far. The thing about EA is, its probably right. If a game does not perform well, its better to cut losses as the game industry is very unforgiving. But somehow all these studios closing down, does feel like the original theme or charisma of the game that they are associated with is lost.

Does it have sequelize support?

The LiMux wiki page mentions a timeline of how the migration happened, so it looks like their phased rollout helped them 'convert' to Linux smoothly.

Quoting from the wiki.. September 6, 2005 - It is decided that the project needs an additional one year pilot test, and migration slips one year.[19]

September 22, 2006 - The "soft" migration begins, one year behind original schedule.[20]

November 2008: 1200 out of 14,000 have migrated to the LiMux environment (9%; March 2008: 1000=7%), in addition 12000 workstations use OpenOffice.org 2 installed on Windows (March 2008: 6000) and more 100% use Mozilla Firefox 1.5 and Mozilla Thunderbird 1.5 (March 2008: 90%). 18000 of 21000 macros, templates and forms are changed into Linux-enabled[21]
