This is not a big deal. The cleanest thing to do would be to issue a  
redirect. So that you configure something like:

   /zidestore/dav/homentry/public

and on access you would get a redirect (302 response) to

   /zidestore/dav/$basic-auth-user$/

Of course this would imply that the client supports redirects which  
is not that common in programmatic ones.

We could also make it an internal alias, but thats not strictly  
correct from an HTTP perspective since those are really different  
resources (resource collections). Though in the OGo case it would be  
probably OK, since folders are just mapped back to regular resources.
Having said all that, it probably also makes sense to expose group  
calendars (and public) in a level above the user folder.


Anyway, it might be worth solving this issue in the Funambol  
connector because having an own collection for a calendar is what a  
LOT of servers do / will do. I suppose your %USER% suggestion is the  
correct approach.
