Thanks.

Best would be if Radicale could be perfected as a daemon. See e.g. at http://0pointer.de/lennart/projects/libdaemon/#overview for what it involves. Second best, as I understand it, for daemons with incomplete daemonizing routines, is to completely avoid those and instead use e.g. launchtool: http://people.debian.org/~enrico/launchtool.html But sure, it is also possible to figure out which parts of the daemonizing process is properly handled by Radicale and only cover over the broken ones - but that's what I fear takes time and frustration to figure out properly. Thanks anyway for the provided scripts.
