Hi Helge!
Yes, basically it was your thread I was talking about, although it
might not have come clear.
Both parties had good arguments there, I think. Why changing a
standard-compliant implementation, only because others don't implement
it correctly? Why porting software to Linux and insisting on a certain
approach when there is no client supporting it? CalDAV may just be too
complicated…
By the way, a workaround could be to disable CalDAV scheduling via
inbox altogether, and make DCS use iMiP also for known local users.
iMiP seems to work fine in both, iCal and Lightning. Is there a way of
doing that?
Unfortunately I also don't expect sunbird/lighning to support DCS's
urn schemes soon. It is just not common enough, and they are already
short on developers. :-(
Regards,
Markus
