I use syncevolution talking to a funambol server (specifically
Scheduleworld) to keep multiple copies of evolution calendar in sync
with each other - it also does contacts, todo lists etc.

One reason you may have had problems copying the raw files over is that
Evo and it's associated components cache a lot of data, so you need to
make sure everything is killed before copying files around - do
'evolution --force-shutdown' before doing the copy.
