This idea really appeals to me personally and I'll be watching this thread; but I can't help but see the humor in it as well.

Little Jimmy, I can't take you to soccer practice because you didn't schedule it on your calendar! What? Your Vista Outlook install isn't syncing with the BSD CalDAV server? Well, use the web interface to schedule a time for Dad to debug it. It's not your Mother's fault that you insisted on having a Dell Windows laptop.

Fellow calserver users,

I'm finally getting back to something that's been on my to-do list for awhile--setting up the cal server for my family to use. I know that there are at least a few others out there who do something similar, so I'm looking for feedback on how you've set it up.

I'm trying to decide if I want to have an account--and, thus, potentially multiple calendars--per person, or if I want to have just one account with multiple calendars under that account. The advantage of the latter layout is that it most accurately mirrors what we have right now. Access control isn't a big issue, because right now it's only my wife and I managing calendars related to ourselves and other members of the family.

The advantage of the former layout, though, is that it scales better for the future (when kids manage their own calendars) and allows more segregation of activities into different calendars. It also would allow for kids to be able to manage their own calendars, but not change those of the parents.

I can manage the technical details pretty well on my own (so far), but am looking for feedback on the administrative side of things. Any and all help appreciated.

Thanks!
