[Cialug] Evolution and iCal

[Stuart Thiessen]

I don't have CalDAV running. It's been a while since I set it up, but I 
think it is WebDAV that is running right now. I looked for Sunbird on 
the Ubuntu list of applications, but it is not listed right now. So 
that means that I will have to download the sources and compile. I have 
done sources and compiling before, but I haven't always had those 
succeed, so I am not as eager to go that route :) .

I did try Mozilla Calendar which I thought would be nearly similar to 
Sunbird. But my Apache server complained that Mozilla Calendar was not 
sending authentication right. So, I'm not sure why that didn't work. I 
also tried KOrganizer, but it didn't seem to be there yet.

Thanks,

Stuart
