#6 Re: How to setup apache + WebDAV as a GroupDAV server? Posted by Anonymous (213.211.xx.xx) on Wed 19 Mar 2008 at 01:18 > If you figure out how to actually make a GroupDAV client use it, drop me a line, will you? ;) Right now there are four (relevant) GroupDAV clients: a) Noodle Evolution Plugin b) Kontact c) SOGo Connector d) ZideOne Outlook Plugin Hm, a) seems to be dead. b) is currently in the Akonadi rewrite, the existing implemention is buggy as hell. We need to wait for Akonadi. c) chances are good that this one will work, but I didn't try. Well and d) is tested against mod_dav as a primary backend. > And yeah, CalDAV uses some WebDAV commands (AFAIK), but some added, unique CalDAV commands. CalDAV adds plenty of REPORTs (protocol specific extensions), and it builds not only on WebDAV, but also on WebDAV ACL (separate spec) and more. Its quite complex (if you implement everything). The basic difference between CalDAV and GroupDAV is that the former puts the burder on the server, while the latter puts all the work on the client. > OTOH, GroupDAV has some calendaring functionality. Not sure what you mean by 'functionality'. GroupDAV is just a storage for iCalendar and vCard files, it doesn't have any 'functionality'. The basic idea is that the clients will do all the work anyways, because they can't rely on the server being online. (if they are in offline mode, they need to do all the work anyways) > I'm guessing that with GroupDAV though, most of the magic is in the clients, rather than the server, so GroupDAV may evolve. Its not really 'magic', but yes ;-) Greets, Helge
