+Usage:
+
+	$script_file davical.example.com
+
+Where 'davical.example.com' is the hostname of your DAViCal server.
+
+This script can be used to synchronise DAViCal from your LDAP server on a regular
+basis to ensure group information is up-to-date.  It's not strictly necessary as
+DAViCal's user data will be updated as soon as a new or updated user logs into
+DAViCal, but it can be useful to synchronise data for people who have not logged
+into DAViCal so that they are visible as potential calendars, for example.
