Now dubbed the 'Note-to-self Organizer', Chandler tortuous path to 1.0 has included several changes in direction and the stepping down of the founder, Mitch Kapor.
The final product is a desktop application, still written mostly in Python, and an optional back-end collaboration server, Cosmo, a Java Web Application. The Chandler Project operates a public instance of Cosmo known as The Chandler Hub. There are also 'Quick Entry' apps for iGoogle and iPhone, and Android. The number of interoperability standards and protocols supported is impressive.
Whether or not it's the "PIM-Of-The-Gods" is still up for debate, but it's undeniably past the beta phase and capable of helping collaboratively organize tasks, calendar events and email."
