LI_S02E12_DAVx5:_CalDAV_and_more_on_Android
In this episode, Martin and Chris host Bernhard Stockmann, the brain and inventor of DAVx5, the central bridge between a *DAV server and any mobile device running Android and thus in bed the Google's approach to calendars (and much more such Contacts and WebDAV). So if even if you've never wondered how to access a CalDAV server from an Android phone or table, this show is definitely for you. Plus bonus content: the recipe for your favourite Scottish national food. Pro tip for a slightly more vegan experience: replace the ox bung with tin foil and cook the mixture in an oven at 160 degrees C (320 degrees F) for about 2 hours. And don't forget to add about a gill of whiskey (approx. 150 ml) to the mixture before the final cooking stage.
