Hmm. I haven't seen Apple iCal do a PROPPATCH on anything but individual calendars or the calendar-home-set. I will see the Apple, DaviCal, Bedework, Oracle, and AOL developers the first week of June at the next CalConnect event and I will bring this up as a topic of discussion to formulate some recommended best practices. BTW, other than my few nit-picks, both of your clients look great and I will be recommending them as add-ons for our server. Keep up the good work!

Per RFC 3744, a server isn't required to support PROPPATCH on principal resources, which the client can probably deduce from DAV:current-user-privilege-set. I wonder if doing the PROPPATCH on CALDAV:calendar-home-set would make more sense. >> >> -- >> Kenneth Murchison >> Principal Systems Software Engineer >> Carnegie Mellon University >> >> -- Kenneth Murchison Principal Systems Software Engineer Carnegie Mellon University

CalDavZAP and settings
by Ken Murchison 10 May '13

Hello, I see that the client tries to store its settings with a PROPPATCH on DAV:current-user-principal. Per RFC 3744, a server isn't required to support PROPPATCH on principal resources, which the client can probably deduce from DAV:current-user-privilege-set. I wonder if doing the PROPPATCH on CALDAV:calendar-home-set would make more sense. -- Kenneth Murchison Principal Systems Software Engineer Carnegie Mellon University

Hello, Are there any plans to allow this client to create calendars using either MKCALENDAR or MKCOL? -- Kenneth Murchison Principal Systems Software Engineer Carnegie Mellon University

CalDavZAP: missing PRODID
by Ken Murchison 09 May '13

09 May '13

Hello, I just started testing this client with the CalDAV server that we are developing and I noticed that when creating an iCalendar object, the required PRODID property is missing. This violates RFC 5545 (and even the obsolete RFC 2445). -- Kenneth Murchison Principal Systems Software Engineer Carnegie Mellon University
