I have a client that uses Novell’s GroupWise (GroupWise!) and its one of those “we schedule it on your calendar and expect you to show up” shops, so I have to make reviewing GroupWise part of my workflow.

The OS X (Java-based) client is so painful, and my life already so organized around Apple’s iCal, that I found it much more convenient to aggregate GroupWise into iCal. Lacking the capability of exporting to iCalendar format, I wrote my own exporter that scrapes the “low-bandwidth” web interface and converts it, serving it up via an embedded web server.

GroupWise Exporter

I released it to a few people, but have never made the code broadly available. So, I’ll announce here that its available, and if anyone wants it, let me know and I’ll post it publicly.

(Just to clarify, this is not an April Fool’s joke.)

UPDATE: I’ve made this application publicly available.
