Hi,

I think the title says it all...

Think that the title says it all....

I am realling missing caldav support, especially for GoogleCalendar two way sync...

Google Calendar will become available in the near future, i.e. probably around KDE 4.3 (it is being developed as an add-on in KDE extragear, which means it has its own release schedules).

There might already be beta packages available, but I couldn't find them in a quick search.

As for CalDav there is currently nobody working on it, but it is likely that we get to that once our resources can me spent more flexible, e.g. once we have done all the PIM app porting to Akonadi.
Or some new developers come along an tackle it, just like what happend for Google data services support.

Cheers,

Thx anda_skoa for the infos.

I know the google Ressource for kde-pim.

It is simply in trunkt/extragear-pim/googledata.

But it has due its underlying library "libgcal" very strong restrictions.

Only the first personal calendar is synced and "at" the moment the syncing of google contacts has many many issues.

Maybe it would be more useful to develop an Akonadi ressource thaht can be used by more than just google...

"Just some thoughts at that"

You should probably contact the author (same person for libgcal and the resource)so he can address those restrictions.

I am not sure I understand what you mean. Currently there is no other service than Google using the Google Data API.

Which is why caldav resource would be neat.

Yep

Any help welcome

One of the nice things about Akonadi resources is that they can be developed independently, i.e. like normal applications, no code from KDEPIM module is required.

I wrote a tutorial for that
http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tut ... /Resources

and I demonstrate the ease of it during a 20min life coding session at the Gran Canaria Desktop Summit (video hopefully available later this week).

So if you know some coders currently not having anything to do, this might be it
