I'm interested. I've written a CalDAV importer (and recently published 
part of it) and I'm interested in finding ways to get at least some 
amount of bi-directionality, for example, avoiding to re-import org 
entries (I can do that but it will work only for me then). Perhaps we 
can find some guidelines for sync.

Cheers,
