Glossary.svg This page describes a concept which is part of our glossary

Groupware is a part of the platform specification that focusses on the concepts of scheduling/booking, notifications, events, tasks and projects within the context of groups, especially trust groups. A related component is group decisions, but groupware focusses more on the communications and networking aspects of groups.
