Ken,
Much thanks for this -- it's quite welcome indeed.  Have you got any 
documentation on the specifics of collection management, rights 
assignment, etc.?  Given that most clients currently available are 
pretty brain-dead about creating new calendars, address books, etc., it 
would be nice to know if it's possible to handle this manually or via 
the underlying mailboxes.

Cheers,

 year and has proven the main HTTP code to be stable.

Nic,

The doc/install-http.html file hopefully should tell you everything you 
need to know.  If not, let me know.

The server will automatically create a Default calendar and 
addressbook, for dumb clients like Lightning that can't create their 
own.  Otherwise, an admin can create additional collections just by 
creating a mailbox in the correct location.  We are toying with the idea 
of creating a webpage that allows the end-user to admin their 
collections (create, delete, rename, acl management) themselves for 
those not using smart clients like iCal.

Ah, now I see it.  Couldn't see the tree for the forest. :)

This would be nice, if possible.  We've been working with Davical and, 
more recently, OwnCloud, for ourselves and considering what to promote 
to our clients (mostly Open Systems or Windows based) and each have 
their short comings.  Davical seems pretty robust, but the management 
GUI is not very friendly.  OwnCloud feels less robust, but is rapidly 
developing (which brings its own share of movign target problems).  
This is not meant to disparage either of these packages, but rather to 
express  the challenges we see in bringing them to a broader audience.

Thanks again for your work!
