known issues
CalDAV
There is a known bug in SabreDAV (which is used by ownCloud): If your calendar contains events with certain time zone IDs that are not recognized by SabreDAV then the server returns an "internal server error" instead of a proper response to the calendar query. Currently your only option is to find those events and delete them (or change the time zone id). Please note that many desktop clients like Thunderbird Lightning and Evolution do not use "calendar query" and thus still work with ownCloud in that case.
CardDAV
During my tests I noticed, that ownCloud seems to populate the vcard file with the FN (formatted name) field only and omits the N (structured name) field. On some phones this may result in improperly displayed names. Please report!
