Selwyn,
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/calendarserver

We havent actually run the Darwin Calendar server, but our main interest 
in it is its a) Open source and

b) implements caldav as well as other protocols.

CalDAV uses WebDAV for organization and transport and iCal for the 
packets..... I would be really surprised if you were not intending to do 
  ical support, and responding to the necessary WebDAV verbs is a very 
small extension from Tomcat... you could probably even use Apache Slide 
or some other webdav set of libraries (Sakai has a WebDAV server you 
could reuse parts of)

The wikipedia page gives links to the relevant RFC's and some client 
libraries.

At Cambridge we will be evaluating it and showing it to the Campus 
potentially with thoughts about how it might be used.
