Lightweight groupware solution using nginx+php-fpm+mysql+baïkal+roundcube+agendav

The goal of this document is to set up a web-based solution providing mail, calendars and contacts management, along with mobile devices & desktop synchronization using dav* protocols.

This obviously needs an already running full mail stack (I use qmail/postfix/dovecot), which will not be covered there. This document also assume that nginx, fpm and mysql are also already up and running.
