Hi,

some friends and I would like to combine our calibre librarys on a server, so that everybody has access to all the ebooks.

I thought this would be possible with the calibre-server, but apparently it isn't.

So I wanted to know if there are plans to integrate something like that? The scenario would but something like:

- calibre server running on a pc connected to the internet
- people are able to connect their calibre clients to the calibre server and upload/download/edit entries (somehow equal to connecting an ebook-reader but the reader is the calibre-server)

ideally this would be password protected....

I have no idea how comlicated this would be but as I said, in general it should not be different from connecting to a device but the device is just another calibre instance on the web.
