Access

Web Interface

Use this URL in your browser:

https://stuff.milkypond.org/

Then you can setup your contacts, calendars, and store files.

WebDAV Interface

You can use the WebDAV interface to sync your data from a desktop application or you mobile device. Applications can use the main address of the web interface (see above) with your credentials and should be able to discover you data, but sometimes they have limitations and you need to specify a full ugly link ; in this case you can find the link in the interface, either on the resource to access or in your personal settings page.
