We are using www.egroupware.org as Mail/Calendar/Contact-Frontend and it
has rudimentary ICS over HTTP support. I spoke to the main developer and
he says that ICS over HTTP is basically a very stupid idea (which I
concur). Other than the occasional glitch, it's working fine with
Sunbird/Lightning.

Anyway, progress is made on getting GroupDAV (or was it CalDAV?) working
with eGroupware, but it is still not there, though.

I prefer the KDE PIM suite Kontact over Mozilla's products any day. It
has tons of bugs, but also some very cool features which I would never
want to miss again.
