I used to use the Evolution calendar.  It was adequate.  Nothing to
write home about, but it worked as advertised and synced with my Palm V.

Has anyone here used the Mozilla Calendar?  If so, what are your
opinions of it?  How about something like KOrganizer or
Gnome-cal (why does this exist anyway? I thought evolution was supposed
to be the gnome calendar)?  My number one prerequisite for a calendar
is that it sync with my Palm V.  I've now switched to using iCal on
my iBook exclusively and I must say it blows away any linux based
calendar (don't take that as criticism, just as encouragement to
keep working on it).  I especially like the ability have multiple
calendars and publish them to a webdav server (on an individual basis).
I also like being able to subscribe to a remote calendar.  It looks
like Korganizer has the beginnings of this, but it's not there yet.
I'd love to be able to subscribe my linux calendar to my iCal calendar
that I've published on my webdav server (and originally got from
my Palm V).  Sort of like a poor man's .Mac iSync. :-)

Cheers,
Tanner
