CalDAV Server on Horde ?

[Patrick Abiven]

Hello
We have noticed that the development of a CalDAV Server module was in progress. Is it possible to have a brief overview of what is going on, and what is the roadmap for these features ?
Regards
Patrick

Hi Patrick,

Integrating CalDAV is my responsibility. Currently I'm spending a lot  
of time on working on RFC 3744 support (ACL), only after that I can  
fully focus on CalDAV.
It's been difficult for me to carve out enough time to work on this,  
so I'm not able to provide you a timeline. It's done when it's done,  
basically.

I can tell you that this is going to be built upon Horde 4, so  
availability will also tie in directly with that.

Hi Patrick,

Work can be done on 2 fronts.

1. Protocol-level work. I'm working on 2 branches in SabreDAV (http://code.google.com/p/sabredav/), one of which adds RFC3744 (ACL), the other adds CalDAV support. If you are familiar with the specifications, this would be a good place to look at. I can give you more info if needed.

2. Horde integration. If you are familiar with the Horde code, I can also definitely use a hand here. Currently there's basic integration to replace the existing Webdav library, but there's a lot of work doing this 'right'. Most importantly is that the horde codebase must have all the functionality required by SabreDAV, without actually depending on SabreDAV. I haven't yet figured out how to do this without ending up with an unmaintainable codebase, because it would involve duplicating around 25 classes and writing some kind of mapping layer. I gave up on this in the short term, so if anyone can pick this up I would be pretty relieved.

If you can continue to hash out what needs to be done here and what  
the challenges are on the mailing list, I will try and at least find  
the time to help plan it and get it to a place where there's a  
workable description of what needs to be done.
