ThinkSecret says that Apple is getting ready to upgrade OS X Server with some sort of improved mail and calendar solution, probably Hula. Thats nice and all, but I REALLY want them to upgrade iCal to support some
publicly-available calendar server. The ability to publish read-only
calendars was nice in 2002 when it was first added, but its been three
years, and Im still waiting for the ability to share read/write
calendars with other family members. Im aware that I could probably do
this with .Mac, but Im not willing to pay $100/year just so I can edit events on my wifes calendar a couple times per week.
Having said that, Hula looks pretty nice. Even without iCal syncing
support, Ill probably consider it when its time to upgrade my mail
server software again; fortunately thats probably at least a year away
still. If iCal gets CalDAV
support before then, then I might have to be a bit more aggressive with
the timeframe. Either that or look for other CalDAV servers. [*scottstuff*]
