What advantages does caldav have over groupdav?

Are there any special libraries necessary or can groupdav / caldav be 
used with the normal webdav libraries (like libneon)?

GroupDAV is mostly a subset of CalDAV for vevent/vtodo related 
operations. It also works with vcards in addition, something which 
isn't in the scope of CalDAV.

The focus of GroupDAV is to be really, really simple to implement in 
web based groupware servers. It doesn't even require a full WebDAV 
implementation, just two predefined PROPFIND queries.

An idea is to have something usable very quickly (GroupDAV) but to have 
a reasonable base to build full CalDAV support upon.

I guess this plugin is doing iCal-over-HTTP. The difference to CalDAV 
and GroupDAV is that those are using URLs to address individual 
vevent/vtodo entries with all the attached advantages.

Yes, support for the *DAV protocols is definetly a target.

How is groupdav related to caldav and webdav?
There already is a plugin in the old multisync that can pull icalendar 
files from webdav, sync it and put it back (thats whats called caldev 
afaik).

Hi all,

Just thought I would throw a question out here primarily for Armin, but
I am happy to hear what others thing.

Have you looked at GroupDAV (http://www.groupdav.org/)?  If so do you
have any plans to use it?

I am still sitting on the fence on GroupDAV, so I am curious to see what
others are thing about it.  For openSync I think it could help broaden
the appeal of the project and also for groupware projects which
implement the protocol.  I can also see the case for everyone just using
syncML ;)

Cheers

Dave

[Opensync-users] OpenSync 0.15 released

[Armin B. <arm...@de...>]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

I just released OpenSync 0.15. This is the first release that has all
plugins split out completely from the framework.

The new features are:

- - The plugins now have 2 possibilites to do batch commits if they like.
The first option is that they receive the changes just normal and get a
committed_all signal as soon as opensync is done sending the changes.
The second option is that they implement a batch commit function that is
called by opensync with an array of all changes to commit.

- - All public functions are now documented via doxygen

- - Improved comparison of vevent and vtodo objects

- - New "most recent" conflict resultion policy: The user can now solve a
conflict by choosing the newest object.

- - Renamed opensync to libopensync to make clear that it is just a libary.

- - the unit tests are now utilizing a special mock-plugin that lives in
the tests/ directoy. This makes it far easier to run and extend the tests.

- - the sources are now compatible with rpm building
