Thanks guys! After a bit of fiddling I managed to get Evolution 2.6 to
view my ogo calendar with:
 webcal://ogouser:password@server:80/zidestore/so/ogouser/Overview/ics

I couldn't get the CalDav flavor working no matter much I fiddled.

Unfortunately Evolution 2.8 isn't an option for me at work since we all
have standardized on Ubuntu Dapper for the forseeable future. And to
give you an idea of what I am up against, the blokes I work with mostly
still use mutt and unlike me they really don't see shared contacts and
calendars as worth the effort. So I figure if I can give them a
prepackaged taste (Sunbird and mutt/LDAP right now maybe, they seem to
find web apps especially distasteful for some reason) they might jump on
the groupware bandwagon completely when we upgrade to a distro that has
Evolution 2.8. 

The next step for me is getting LDAP working to pull contacts out of
OGO. Has anybody actually done that?
