Bug Description
There has already been a significant number of Ubuntu supporters who have indicated that the lack of CalDav and CardDav support for the Ubuntu Touch Phone is a very serious deficiency impacting most negatively on the usefulness of this smartphone and hence its attractiveness to the market and its competitiveness with other offerings.
I am writing this to state that I totally agree with their opinion on this matter.
I believe it is imperative that the "Ubuntu Phone's" calendar be synchronised with a calendar on a Ubuntu Server. It is similarly important the phone's contact book also synchronise with the contact book on the server that is used for email clients such as Evolution and Thunderbird. This is fundamental to the functions of a smartphone and without it, the value of this phone is greatly degraded.

Please implement a user friendly solution for adding CalDAV synchronization.
There are multiple tutorials for CalDAV with syncevolution, but none of them covers Baikal as a server.
Even though there should be little difference, I can't get it to work.
Using syncevolution on the command line is confusing and cumbersome.
This might be very important for everybody who is using neither Google nor OwnCloud.
