[Opensync-users] Many iCals --> Evo (actually iCals--> Palm)

[Who <mai...@go...>]

Hi all, I was pointed here form IRC - hope this is right :)

I want to put many different iCal files onto my Palm, I don't _really_
care how it happens, but it seems the smoothest Cal -> palm experience
happens using Evolution, so that left me with needing to do "many
iCals --> Evolution" - these iCals are on the web and on my system...

So, where I've got so far: Use claws mail (which I use as my mail
client anyway...) to get the iCal files, which it bundles into one
single ical for me, then sync that file with evolution

This works fine on the first sync. BUT I don't have a reliable way for
things that are added through either the palm or in Evolution (which I
do sometimes use for entering data on the actual computer) to get into
claws (or, I don't think I do - any suggestions). Because Claws mail
just sucks its ical events into one big file, and it ignores any
changes that anything makes to that file (re-exporting the original
file every X minutes), when I do the second sync, opensync thinks
claws has deleted all the palm/evo based things and then deletes them
from Evo, and subsequently the Palm! Not what I want


 I think what I am trying to ask for is a way to say "This (Evo
calendar) is the canonical calendar, don't delete anything from it
[unless it came from the claws calendar and now it isn't in the evo
calendar]" and "This (claws calendar) is a bunch of things that might
already be in the evolution calendar, but if they aren't, add them in.
The bit in [ ]brackets I think I could do without...

Any suggestions?

Anyone have a better solution for taking multiple iCal files and
bundling them on to one single Palm (bonus points if you can get a
category<->calendar correlation)

Thanks very much!
