CalDAV from Sunbird is working in recent builds. There is now a
GroupDAV plugin for Thunderbird -

> If you can't sync your program directly with GroupDAV, you can use
> SyncML protocol as an intermediate layer. Usually this means installing
> Funambol synchronization server and GroupDAV plugin for it. GroupDAV
> plugin handles communication between Funambol and OpenGroupware. This
> way you can synchronize pretty much any SyncML capable program/device
> with OGo. Of course you will run into various problems (time issues,
> strange error messages, etc.) but it can be done. You can even (try to)
> sync OGo with Outlook by using the Funambol outlook plugin (=plugin for
> outlook) and GroupDAV plugin.
