[Design] Re: [chandler-users] Jon Udell article on subscribing to Google Calendar from Outlook

[Mimi Yin]

I think that's where I would prefer to have it be something more  
'concrete' than WebDAV. e.g. specific services/destinations (e.g.  
Flickr) that users understand. That being said, there will also be a  
place for identifying accounts by technology, probably in an advanced  
area. I think the model we have today for the 'Subscribe' pulldown is  
a good place to start. We listed a few of the most 'likely' clients  
users can subscribe with, that we support and then have an advanced  
area for users using other clients who are can figure how to  
subscribe for themselves.
