Doesn't the iCalendar VJOURNAL match the Journal entries  
(IPM.Activity) of Outlook?

I guess by Note you mean the "Sticky Notes"? Not sure what we would  
do about those. I guess one would take the folder as a "sticky note"  
container and then treat contained text/plain, text/html, text/rtf as  
notes?

VJOURNAL is covered by the CalDAV multiget. I'm not so fond of  
"GROUPDAV:multiget" because so far we got along w/o any special  
GroupDAV requests, just by restricting whats already specified in  
more complex protocols.

For notes I suppose its not a huge issue anyways? Do you have 1000  
sticky notes? :-) Probably more like 5..20 or so ... (though the  
screens are getting bigger)

I also dislike that there is no generic multiget method in WebDAV.  
Maybe Julian is still watching the list and has a good idea on how to  
approach this.

Thanks,
