GovOPlaN Scheduling

GovOPlaN Scheduling owns meeting scheduling and Terminfindung: finding suitable times across people, resources, calendars, constraints, and scheduling polls.

This repository is currently a tag-only scaffold. It should gain package metadata and module manifests only after the first backend or WebUI slice is designed.

Scope

Scheduling owns:

meeting scheduling polls and proposals
participant availability collection
time-window and resource constraints
candidate-slot ranking and conflict explanation
scheduling state, reminders, and decision handoff
optional links to external calendar/groupware systems through capabilities

Scheduling does not own:

calendar primitives such as events, recurrence, availability storage, resources, and calendar adapters; those belong in govoplan-calendar
fixed-slot public or internal appointment booking; that belongs in govoplan-appointments
tasks, case work, approvals, and generic workflow state; those belong in govoplan-tasks, govoplan-cases, and govoplan-workflow
mail delivery or notifications; those belong in govoplan-mail and govoplan-notifications

Expected Integrations

govoplan-calendar: availability, calendars, resources, rooms, recurrence, Open-Xchange/calendar adapters
govoplan-appointments: conversion from a selected meeting time into a booked appointment where appropriate
govoplan-access and govoplan-idm: participants, groups, directory lookup, permissions
govoplan-mail and govoplan-notifications: invitations, reminders, confirmations
govoplan-portal: external participant scheduling flows
govoplan-workflow and govoplan-tasks: follow-up work after a time is selected

Initial Backlog

The active backlog lives in Gitea issues. Start with:

define the scheduling module boundary
decide whether scheduling polls are internal-only, external/public, or both
define the relationship between scheduling proposals and calendar events
define privacy and retention rules for participant availability
define capability contracts with calendar, access, IDM, mail, notifications, portal, and appointments
