It looks like that *is* the CalDAV server in Leopard Server, just
without any fancy UI that the Leopard version might have.

Sad as it might be, improvements in calendaring are one of the things
I'm looking forward to most about Leopard. I know it's got the least
news as its amongst the least flashy features, but I use iCal heavily
and could do with a decent sharing solution.

Don't think it is that sad. Previous updates needed to fix things that
weren't right with OSX, but it is getting to the stage where things work
well and there are fewer glaring holes.

Calendar server on the Mini plus our two laptops accessing it seems
like a good thing to me. Presumably there's some way of backing up too
- I'd do something like rsync it to my co-lo box on a cron task.

I assume I am out of that licence section. I have a mini, which is just
used as a server, then we have one laptop each and the desktop.

by the nature of the way they are used, the mini is on all the time as a
server, but if the desktop is awake it means (at least) one of the
laptops is asleep. Although I don't care what iCal says on the mini (in
that I can't see it anyway), I guess that would make 4 machines, and
where it is worth $49 to me, it isn't worth $98
