Again sorry for top posting, using OWA which doesn't quote properly.

It sounds like you're making good progress which is fantastic!
Please tag me in any merge requests (using @chriadam on github etc) so that I get notified of them, and then I can review etc.

Best regards,
Chris.

Do you mean the calendar part? We'll test for sure all of this before
approaching you with MR.

Thumbs up and fingers crossed! Thank you!

As my previous posts were not showing on the dev list, I write here to test
if it works. In any case I'll be glad to receive some advises and review on
the progress done.

What I did is to
        - rebase btcalendar on current master and add latest changes
        - remove bluez4 from buteo-syncfw and buteo-sync-plugins
        - replace what needed with bluez5 and
        - had "a lot of fun" getting the plugins running.

Now it works, but has few things to polish and of course to test. It will be
indeed wonderful if someone could help with review and advise in the
process.

Thank you in advance
