[Chandler-dev] Email interpretation info and ideas

[Darshana Chhajed]

Hi Viksit,
I have just done natural language date/time parsing till now. I have 
submitted the patch (Bug 6249) which integrates it with Chandler. Only 
the date/time fields in the Detail view of an event in the calendar is 
using the parsedatetime library currently. The next thing I am working 
on is the text entry widget for quick item entry.Still havent got to 
interpreting emails :). So, I havent looked at the specs or earlier 
discussions yet for details. But I think flagging the email would be the 
way to do it.
Till now, I havent using NLTK or MontyLingua for parsedatetime. Just 
simple regular expressions. But I have been looking into NLTK to get its 
feel.

Bye,
Darshana
