Having had a good time getting Funambol working for OTA syncing is great, but it’s one part of a solution; it’s great for backup and multi-device information sharing, but it doesn’t give much in the way of, say, cross-user calender sharing.

Enter groupware solutions. (Look ma, I’m talking like an architect!)

Having poke about a bit, I’m trying eGroupware. It’s an free solution (albeit with a more featureful commercial variant); it supports PostgreSQL (a must-have for me), and it doesn’t require any kind of full stack replacement (other suites of this sort, as I have lamented in the past seem to require you replace your existing mail server, web server, and random other components). This all looks reasonably positive, as does the fact that it’s regularly producing releases and appears to be taking patches from an active community.
