Grooviness. I'm using rtm-14.09. Loving it. I had to manually install 
the debs from launchpad for owncloudcmd for file syncing - needed 
libowncloudsync0, owncloud-client, & owncloud-client-cmd. Probably could 
have edited the sources.list file and enabled the standard armhf repos, 
but instead I installed the debs. Owncloud is not in the rtm repos. I'm 
using owncloudcmd at the moment as a cron job to sync hourly. Yep folks, 
it's a writeable image.

For calendar sync, below is the syntax. Once set-up, you can run the 
bottom command as a cron job. It's fiddly, but it works. The variables 
"MyCalendar" "curious-owncloud" and "froggy" can be changed to suit your 
taste. Providing they are consistent, and are different from each other, 
anything should work. You will see MyCalendar in your calendar app, 
which can be synced by running the last command. Lastly, anything in 
parenthesis needs your own details there, but do NOT include the 
parenthesis when running the command. Good luck.


----Code--------
#Create Calendar
syncevolution --create-database backend=evolution-calendar 
database=MyCalendar

#Create Peer
syncevolution --configure --template webdav username="yourusername" 
password="yourpoassword" 
syncURL="url-to-owncloud"/remote.php/caldav/calendars/username/defaultcalendar 
keyring=no target-config@curious-owncloud

#Create New Source
syncevolution --configure backend=evolution-calendar database=MyCalendar 
@default froggy

#Add remote database
syncevolution --configure 
database="url-to-owncloud"/remote.php/caldav/calendars/username/defaultcalendar 
backend=caldav target-config@curious-owncloud froggy

#Connect remote calendars with local databases
syncevolution --configure --template SyncEvolution_Client 
syncURL=local://@curious-owncloud username= password= curious-owncloud 
froggy

#Add local database to the source
syncevolution --configure sync=two-way database=MyCalendar 
curious-owncloud froggy

#Start first sync
syncevolution --sync refresh-from-remote curious-owncloud froggy

#Repeat syncing
syncevolution --sync two-way curious-owncloud froggy
