Update. This is about right. Bedework is unsuitable for my needs. It's too big of a framework. Very intensive. The developers say it requires its own dedicated server, which is why it's not offered by webhosting companies. There's no such thing as a server that runs Bedework for multiple clients, and from what I've read, I don't exactly want to run it on my desktop machine. Sigh. It does look like a conquer the world type application though. Very impressive, but you hit the nail squarely on the head with the above paragraph. I looked into mod_caldav. The documentation is spotty, but from what I can tell, it requires a patched Apache server?!? I've seen messages of people who were compiling Apache to run mod_caldav, and that looks like a whole can of worms too. I started to look into the Ubuntu calendarserver package. Still trying to figure out how to set it up and whatnot; documentation sucks, but I think it might be the most fruitful avenue to caldav out of the three options I've looked at so far.
