Multiple Calendars?
by Jim Seymour 17 May '13

17 May '13

Hi There, Have DAViCal server (1.1.1 with iOS patches applied) and several clients working with it. Trying CalDAVZap for a web-based solution. We have, of course, individual calendars. We'll have group calendars. (The biggest of which, in subscribers, will be the company-wide calendar.) We have individuals which will want to share calendars on a read-only basis with coworkers. Etc. I, for example, have my calendar, a resource (calendar) that is r/w by a DAViCal group, and a coworker's calendar is marked "public read." The only calendar that shows up is mine. Is it possible for CalDAVZap users to see the others? Write to the ones that should be writable by them? Thanks, Jim -- Note: My mail server employs *very* aggressive anti-spam filtering.

Fwd: Re: [Tc-caldav-l] PROPPATCH on principal resources
by Ken Murchison 17 May '13

17 May '13

FYI. The message below is from some Apple folks that I know. One on the client side and one on the server side. I also received a response from one of the Oracle developers that their "server does not allow PROPPATCH on principal resources either. Calendar home or calendar collection are fine." -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [Tc-caldav-l] PROPPATCH on principal resources Date: Wed, 15 May 2013 14:16:13 -0400 From: Cyrus Daboo <cyrus(a)daboo.name> To: Helge Heß <helge_hess(a)apple.com>, tc-caldav-l Reflector tc-caldav-l <tc-caldav-l(a)calconnect.org> Hi Helge, --On May 15, 2013 at 10:39:31 AM -0700 Helge Heß <helge_hess(a)apple.com> wrote: > I don't think it's a good idea even if some servers allow that (I mean > it's a good idea in pure DAV theory, but it's not a good choice in > practice ;-).

For the record our server does not support PROPPATCH of dead properties on a principal resource. With our delegate support we do allow PROPPATCH of group-member properties on the delegate resources which are children of the principal. I do think using WebDAV properties for preferences is not the best solution. In Mulberry, as a replacement for IMSP and ACAP, I ended using a simple WebDAV PUT of a properties document to a "regular" WebDAV server (not that our calendar server does not support non-calendar/address data puts in a home). The benefit of using a resource rather than properties is that conflicts can be detected (etag conditions) - that is important because multiple clients are involved. That said, it is still not ideal in that it would be nice to be able to do partial updates - but PATCH could take care of that. In any case, I suggest telling the client folks to try PROPPATCH on principals, if that fails, try the calendar home, if that fails try the default calendar (which is not ideal because it could be deleted), if that fails - fail gracefully! -- Cyrus Daboo _______________________________________________ tc-caldav-l mailing list tc-caldav-l(a)lists.calconnect.org http://lists.calconnect.org/mailman/listinfo/tc-caldav-l -- Kenneth Murchison Principal Systems Software Engineer Carnegie Mellon University

Re: [Inf-IT DAVcl] CalDavZAP and settings
by Ken Murchison 10 May '13

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!

CalDavZAP and settings
by Ken Murchison 10 May '13

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

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

I hope this is not considered off-topic ;) Has anyone succeeded in running CalDAVzap and CardDAVmate with the ownCloud server? -- Johan
