[GRLUG] Linux PIM

[Roger Roelofs]

I vote for the command line too.  I'm currently using todo.txt along
with punch for time tracking.  They both work with plain text files
that I can put on my Dropbox for easy access from my phone or
wherever.  It doesn't do anything else a PIM would do.  PIM features
accessible form the command line would be killer.  Among other things
it would make integration with other apps much simpler.

Thanks for tilting at windmills for our benefit!
