The calendar module provided by Kolab is under APGL but currently lacks a CalDAV backend. There are plans to add this but the work for that isn't scheduled yet.
Personally, I am ready to sponsor a programmer, maybe others willing to help?
I could connect you with the programmers who announced their intents to add CalDAV to the Kolab calendar module. Or maybe they're even listening on this list (therefore cc-ing the dev list).

Hello,
we at GMS (http://www.gms.lu/ - https://github.com/GMS-SA/)are the company Thomas hinted at who are working on CalDAV and CardDAV support.
The Calendar support is implemented by extending the Kolab plugin(s). A CalDAV driver is being implemented for calendar and tasklist plugins.
The CardDAV support is being implemented as a new and independent plugin as the Kolab addressbook is completely different and does not support backend 'drivers'.
Our CalDAV implementation is using the SabreDAV (http://code.google.com/p/sabredav/) and the sabre-vobject (https://github.com/evert/sabre-vobject) Libraries.
In both cases our target CalDAV/CardDAV server is SOGo (http://www.sogo.nu/). Development is trying to stay as RFC complaint as possible. There are cases, however, where SOGo diverges from the RFC or the RFCs were published later than features were implemented in SOGo. In such cases it is planned to have config options for server support so that this does not become a SOGo plugin. Our main focus is SOGo as this is what we are using.
Work is well underway. Most functionality is implemented but there is still lots to do before a release is expected. We are not talking years but probably over 1 month.
Regards,
Chris
This is great news!
I have been using the caldav calendar plugin from myroundcube, with a radicale caldav backend. However, a while back they moved the caldav support into a non-free "calender_plus" plugin and I've been wondering what I would do in the future.
Also looking forward to not having to use their plugin manager.
I can understand why they've done this, but it's not for me.
