In particular, I have entries like * Course with irregular times <2013-09-23 Mon 15:30-17:30> <2013-09-24 Tue 15:00-17:00> <2013-10-18 Fri 15:00-17:00> Or * Person X visiting <2013-09-21 Fri>--<2013-10-02 Tue> <2013-11-15 Fri 17:52>--<2013-11-18 Mon 13:00> With these I get double entry errors/warnings when syncing with org-caldav and only the first entry is displayed on my phone's calendar, it seems. I have quite a backlog of entries in this format, but I would, reluctantly, switch to another format if that would make it work with org-caldav. I'm not sure which format is better though, or whether there's a more appropriate way to specify reoccurring events. Thanks, Rasmus PS: There's a new application in F-Droid (supposedly also in the Google repo), that seems /very/ promising for DAV-sync. It's called DAVdroid, http://davdroid.bitfire.at/what-is-davdroid So far calendar sync works great! I will test ASynk/BBDB ↔ DAVdroid later. -- This is the kind of tedious nonsense up with which I will not put
