Whilst I have your attention ;) Are there any plans to add CalDav/iCal client functionality to NextCloud? I'd like my NextCloud server to sync with external calendars (E.g my work Google calendar) so that I only have to point my client devices at my own server.

I strongly recommend radicale with DavDroid. I've been using this set up (that only took a few minutes to complete, especially with Caddy for TLS) for months now with great success.

Radicale will also automatically commit every change into a Git repo, so you can always go back to any point in time. Just amazing.

Radicale sounds interesting, but it looks like it's just a CalDAV server? OwnCloud/NextCloud already gives me that. What I'm looking for is a way of syncing calendars which have to be off-site, to my own server. I don't have control over the fact that my company uses Google calendars for work and I'd like to dump my Facebook events into an OwnCloud/NextCloud calendar too.

Not in the way that you require it. But you can always file an issue or enhancement request :-)

That said, we'll likely have Webcal support (https://github.com/owncloud/calendar/pull/443), that way you can at least in ownCloud view your Google calendars. (it's not synced though)
