Brief feedback:

- - I'm using DAViCal package as server (for Calendar + Contacts)
  - upstream said "no more time to maintain" in 2012 but list activity
looks busier than ever
http://sourceforge.net/p/davical/mailman/davical-general/?viewmonth=201210


- - I've been using

  Icedove + Iceowl-extension (Lightning) + Sogo connector

 as calendar client


- - due to the limitations of Icedove addressbook UI (max 2 email
addresses per contact, etc) I tend to use Evolution as the client for
the Contact records


- - I've also tried the various Android clients against DAViCal,
including the new DAVdroid (which is open source) and I've tried the
not-really-open CardDAV-sync app


Thanks for making the Sogo connector a proper package
