Greetings List Lurkers,
I gotta hand it to Sam, Spousal Acceptance Factor - SAF.
Soon, Mr. Hooker's progeny will arrive at the age of reason, and then...
Spousal Acceptance Factor - Extended?
Oh my...

Subject: Re: Seeking Alternative to Google Calendar
Joe,
I've run an instance of Zimbra Collaboration Suite (the Community Edition) for about five
years now. It'd certainly be too much gun for a calendar-only job, but provides the
caliber of webmail I need to tempt the family away from El Goog. My wife and I both have
iOS devices accessing multiple shared calendars via CalDAV, and the only deficiency in
the Calendar.app integration is that it lacks the ability to invite. This isn't a big
deal for us in that we both primarily use the iOS calendars in (ahem) "read-only
mode", doing the vast bulk of our event creation in the web client (on Big
Computers). The SAF* is quite high. ;-)

Subject: Seeking Alternative to Google Calendar
Vagrants,
I'm looking for an alternative to goog calendar for me and the dear
wife. This will be accessed by her iPhone5 and my linux based N9-00
http://www.nokia.com/global/products/phone/n9/ (which is a very cool
phone running Meego).
I've run a caldav server before and they seem to be reliable beasts
that don't need much feeding. The N9 has a caldav calendar interface
as does the iPhone I think. I've heard of some difficulty with iOS
devices interacting with CalDAV servers, but I think they can
interoperate.
I'd rather not have the big G gathering even more data on me. Google
calendar is easy, free, web based. These are all good and I may go
google. I don't think I'd respect myself in the morning though.
Your opinions welcomed.
