        Hi,
that was meant as kind of joke, "The problem is..." was just a cut of my
paragraph with test request which I figured was pointless, because the
evolution webdav code does remove uid and rev before passing it to the
server. Just as you said. And I agree we should fix this on evolution's
side.

The bug is a generic bug about CardDAV support for evolution. And it's
not done yet, but when it'll be, then your issue should be fixed too. I
gave here the bug link to have a reference to bugzilla for your issue.
Any future work would be done there, rather than on this list. If you
are willing to test possible patches (it will require to build
evolution-data-server), then it'll be helpful.

I hope I'm more clear with my reply this time.
        Bye,
