Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Coordinating Participation for projects/ events using Project Calendars

[Sean Davey (sean]

Hi Chris,

I host sites for communities for free at https://cohousing.site 
<https://cohousing.site/> that include calendars and much more. I don't 
currently support project timelines in the same way that your two examples do, 
but I am working on a Work module for tracking projects, participants, work 
hours, etc. I've also been thinking of adding a "library" module for tracking 
community items that can be checked out/returned. If this is something that 
might work for your community, please let me know. I'd be happy to work with 
you to design the system to meet your needs.

best,
  Sean
