Hello,

I have reported the need of sync multiple calendars to
http://bugs.linuxtogo.org/ (ID 85). 

As Graham mentioned, one possible way is to enhance the configuration of
opensync (or enhance the abilities of gpesyncd?) to access the
gpe-calendars separately for the sync-process. 

I think, that this approach solves your problem too.

Greetings,
Helge
