Same problem as Dietz here ! 

Akonadi gcal ressource synchronization seems to work only the first time, when the gcal agent is just 
created. 

I can see google events in korganizer but when I modify calendar (from the google website) there's 
no updates in korganizer. And when I try to sync manually with akonadiconsole and it freezes.


About the CalDAV I'm confused :

- DAViCal seems to be a CalDAV server, but here we need a CalDAV client right ?

- Altough I'm under KDE 4.6.5 I can't see any CalDAV client in the Akonadi agents list...

- Why a dedicated Google Calendar agent exists for Akanodi since generic CalDAV client agent coud do 
the same work (but not only for Google servers) ?


Thanks for your help,

Vincent.
