Sync Evolution Calendar with Google Calendar December 18, 2006

Not so much a detailed guide as a couple of links to help me out in the future:
How to sync your google calendar with Evolution
The access is “read-only” which means you cannot add events in Evolution and have them show up in your google calendar, but your events in google calendar will be available in Evolution for you to read.
To circumvent the problem of the sync described above not being a “true” two-way sync, one can use scheduleworld as a go-between. This way, Evolution and Google Calendar both sync to scheduleworld, and everything is hunky-dory.
A guide to sync Google calendar using scheduleworld is available, but the guide (unfortunately) deals with MS Outlook primarily.
Many of the concepts from the guide can be usd with Evolution. The missing link is the SyncEvolution plugin for Evolution. There is a thread at Ubuntu Forums that explains how to get going with SyncEvolution. So put it all together, and you can sync your Evolution Calendar with your Google Calendar.
Maybe we should all try and add a few million more users to Ubuntu, and then perhaps Google and everyone else will make it easier for us folks to sync and inter-operate seamlessly with their services. Googlers use Ubuntu - I wonder why a few of them won’t spend their quota of free/creative weekly hours to make things easier for us folks 
I have two workstations, a laptop and a SyncML enabled smartphone. I use Gmail and Gcal, but like having evolution-data-server up to date (GNOME clock applet quickly tells me what’s going on, and i get alarms)
My sync scheme is as follows:
- evolution calendar is subscribed to Gcal
- evolution todo is subscribed to Scheduleworld
- evolution addressbook is subscribed to Scheduleworld
- my phone syncs with scheduleworld (which autosyncs with Gcal)
- while at a computer, I make all changes with the web interfaces, I don’t bother with syncing evolution’s local stuff (easier to subscribe to the online data, to keep all my machines current)
- while on the go, I obviously make changes into the phone’s calendar/addressbook
- I trigger syncs from the phone as often as needed
Works, but could be easier I guess
I’m trying the reverse direction: I’m publishing my evolution calendar over sftp to a web address and then I’ve added that to my Google calendar - however evolution puts the time zone incorrectly so the events appear 2 hours later than they should (I’m at GMT+2).
So more fiddling required…

So strange… but, on amd64 systems, this way Evolution+Google Calendar works better than Thunderbird2+Lightning+Google Calendar… and it’s easier to configure the first time. Great!
Thank you…
Thanks for arctitle…
