- * An intuitive, attractive AJAX-style web interface
- .
- The key to Citadel's versatility is its unique architecture. A Citadel system
- is made up of containers called "rooms." A room may be used as an email
- folder, a discussion forum, a real-time chat, a mailing list, a calendar,
- an address book, an RSS sink ... sometimes a combination of any of the above,
- and certainly any other uses which could be added in the future. Furthermore,
- you can replicate rooms between multiple Citadel nodes, allowing you to set up
- a federated, distributed messaging environment.
- .
- With that in mind, Citadel excels at applications such as:
- * E-mail and groupware (shared calendaring, etc.)
- * Bulletin Board System (BBS)
- * Online discussion forums / chat rooms
