CalDAV is an HTTP protocol so changing the prefix is not an issue - it
is, after all, just telling the program how to communicate with the
server and so long as Evo knows what to do, then it doesn't matter.
Some would probably say that caldav: is more correct than http:

FWIW, it has always worked fine for me with various flavours of Fedora.
