I don't know of any calDav, cardDav servers written in Go, but i have heard of the following popular servers:

* https://radicale.org - written in python.

* https://sabre.io/baikal/ - written in php...which i see that you are not so crazy about...but i note it only because it is quite solid reputation.

I'm curious why would you want a calDav, cardDav server written in Go? Is it for scalability? Or, ease of deployment? I am not judging your preference at all; i'm genuinely curious? Also, separately, i first learned of cyrus imap from a blogpost that FastMail folks posted, but do not much about it (other than it is highly respected as a platform for mail, calendar, contacts)...Is it built in Go?

Cyrus predates Go by quite a while! The project started in 1994. It's implemented in C.

Oh wow, you're not kidding about predating Go by quite a while! :-) Thanks for sharing.
