Finally had time to test this, but this doesn't seem to work... here  
are the your instructions again, Cyrus, as well as my results...

Okay, I have 3 accounts configured in iCal now:

1) my account (user A)
2) my test account (user B)
3) the account you requested me to create here using the username and  
password for user A, and the following server address:
	
https://mydomain:8443/principals/__uids__/test/

I have setup delegation for user A so that I can access user B using  
the delegation tab in the iCal GUI

Here is my accounts XML file:


<user>
   <uid>userA</uid>
   <guid>userA</guid>
   <password>password</password>
   <name>user A</name>
   </user>
<user>
   <uid>userB</uid>
   <guid>userB</guid>
   <password>password</password>
   <name>user B</name>
   </user>
<user>


  <location>
   <uid>userA</uid>
   <password>password</password>
   <name>user A</name>
    <auto-schedule/>
   <proxies>
   <member type="users">userB</member>
   </proxies>
   </location>

   <location>
   <uid>userB</uid>
   <password>password</password>
   <name>user B</name>
   <auto-schedule/>
   <proxies>
   <member type="users">userA</member>
   </proxies>
   </location>


The result: no noticeable change. I was expecting that anything I'd  
write to the delegate calendar would be available under user B's  
calendar and vice versa.

Have I done something wrong here?
