Michal Karczmarek <address@hidden> described the package as
follows:
License: gpl
Other License: 
Package: e-mail based Personal Information Manage
System name: epimp
Type: non-GNU

Description:
This project will allow for doing all calendar/todo/group scheduling, etc
tasks using only e-mail. Every action will be sent as a transaction to a
mailbox. Many clients can read the same mailbox (work/laptop/home, etc).
You can share your calendar with someone else by e-mailing it to them. You
will be able to keep multiple calendars in different mailboxes, or in the
same mailbox. Moving to a new mailbox will be as simple as mailing the
current state to the new mailbox and informing everyone who sends you
e-mail what your new address is. If a mailbox is overflowing, the client
will be able to send the current state to the mailbox and delete all old
messages.

The e-mails will contain a short human-readable message of what is
happening and an XML file with the actual actions performed. Adding new
capabilities will be as simple as extending the XML. If an old client
can't understand a part of the modification, it will simply ignore it.

Long term, even cell phones may be able to download and view up-to-date
calendars, by downloading mail from a mailbox.

This will also become a simple e-mail client. It will use labels for
sorting (rather than folders).

I would want to publish this under GPL.

Other Software Required:
I'm thinking of starting with:
 - VMime for e-mail capabilities (GPL)
 - wxWindows for GUI (GPL compatible)
 - SQLite for database (public domain, can be relicensed)
 - TinyXML for xml parsing (GPL)


Other Comments:
I currently have no source code, only a great idea.
