What about remote CalDAV calendars. If a Chandler user is subscribed
to CalDAV calendars from multiple CalDAV servers it would be _really_
nice if we could just store the subscription information and have
scooby load those events from each subscribed collection/calendar,
rather than syncing all the remote events through Chandler to Scooby.
If we did it this way, supporting other calendar subscription models
(webcal, gdata) would slide in easily once we're ready to implement
them.

Ideally, whatever data you see in Chandler, you can also see in
Scooby. But in the Beta timeframe, it's reasonable to tell users
that we can't support 3rd party calendar subscriptions like .Mac or
Google Calendar in Scooby.
Back of my personal settings would be a definite PLUS. I will add
that to the list of open design issues PPD is tracking.

I have some questions for the design and scooby teams about this
spec:
http://svn.osafoundation.org/docs/trunk/docs/specs/rel0_7/
Sharing-0.7.html
About the section on "(Re-)Storing a user's sharing world via
Cosmo": What do we need to do to support Scooby so that it can
view calendars we have subscribed to (but not published)? Say
that I have subscribed my Chandler to a remote .ics URL (like .Mac
or Google Calendar)? Do I need my Chandler to turn around and
upload that calendar to Cosmo (and keep it in sync) in order for
Scooby to see it or is giving Scooby the calendar's remote .ics
URL sufficient? Also, I'm doing some handwaving when I use the
term 'giving', because I don't know how to let Scooby know about
such a URL.
Also, I was thinking it might be handy to have a "back up my
personal settings" feature which can export some set of items such
as accounts and shares to the local disk. That way, you could
'restore your world' without having to re-enter even your Cosmo
account info.
By the way, there is already a way today to create a personal
parcel that contains whatever account items you want to have pre-
defined when you launch Chandler from an empty repository. See
