* feat(baikal): update to Baikal 0.12.1 and track sabre-io releases ckulka/baikal-docker, and the archived fork the addon was based on, stopped publishing images at Baikal 0.10.1, so the addon could not follow upstream and its updater tracked a repository that no longer moves. The base image is now used for its runtime only (nginx, php-fpm, msmtp) and the application comes from the release published by sabre-io, which the updater can follow. The Home Assistant timezone fix the fork carried as a whole patched Plugin.php is applied as the single hunk it actually is, and the build fails if sabre/dav ever moves that code. The addon data folder holds the application as well as the user data, and it was seeded with no-clobber, so a rebuilt image never replaced the code being served. Application folders are now refreshed on every start ; Specific and config are still only seeded when missing. Closes #3038 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(baikal): satisfy markdownlint on the new changelog and readme lines Bare URLs (MD034) and a heading with no blank line before its list (MD022 / MD032). The blank line matches the older hand-written entries in the same file. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Home assistant add-on: Baikal
I maintain this and other Home Assistant add-ons in my free time: keeping up with upstream changes, HA changes, and testing on real hardware takes a lot of time (and some money). I use around 5-10 of my >110 addons so regularly I install test machines (and purchase some test services such as vpn) that I don't use myself to troubleshoot and improve the addons
If this add-on saves you time or makes your setup easier, I would be very grateful for your support!

About
Baikal is a lightweight CalDAV+CardDAV server. It offers an extensive web interface with easy management of users, address books and calendars. It is fast and simple to install and only needs a basic php capable server. The data can be stored in a MySQL or a SQLite database. It ships the release published by sabre-io, running on the nginx and php-fpm image built by https://github.com/ckulka/baikal-docker.
After an update of Baikal itself, open the web admin once : Baikal asks to confirm the upgrade before it serves calendars again. Calendars, contacts, users and the Baikal configuration are kept, but a manual edit made inside the application folders themselves is replaced on every start.
