Christoph Anton Mitterer ea1ca0be0c escape version string to prevent XSS for sure
* HTML escape the remotely retrieved version string printed to the HTML in order
  to prevent and attacks (if this would have been possible at all in 12
  characters).

The version string read from the davical.org webserver might be changed by an
attacker in order to perform XSS.
Even though this is highly unlikley (there are only 12 characters used) it's
better to HTML escape any such string that is printed to HTML.

DAViCal for Debian
----------------

This is a CalDAV Server which I wrote because I was getting
sick of the length of time it was taking to make worthwhile
CalDAV server-side implementations that worked OK with
Evolution.

Then, when I finally did find a CalDAV store that worked, I
found that it was quite bloated because it wanted to do vast
amounts of irrelevant stuff.  Well, irrelevant for me in any
case.
