Since there seems to be no soltuion in the near future, I'll just post may changes here ... it is Open Source after all
This modification is based on "open-xchange-thunderbird-connector-1.7.8-2-FOLDER-TB3.xpi"
Relevant changes are:
* addon runs with Thunderbird 7
* asynchronous synchronization disabled (i.e. Thunderbird is blocked during synchronization)
The XPI and source code is for now available at (in all proability this is only temporary, i.e. I do not know how long it will be available there)
WARNING: use at your own risk, i.e. without any warrenty (see readme file)

I tried to post a link to the modified version (XPI and sources-ZIP), but got a message that the posting needed approval from a moderator.
This was some time ago, so either this forum allows no posting of links or there is no moderator ...
I will try to contact Sebastian Krauss via E-Mail, but after that I am a bit of a loss, what to do next ...

Hi russa,
I can offer to host the resources, files, etc on our server. If there is interest in, i can prepare a site, where we can continue to develop the Thudnerbird Oxtender. Unfortunately my knowledge is limited in programming, but I would like to contribute and to help in further development,

Hi,
thank's a lot. The xpi from russa side is working well with thunderbird 7 and lightning 1.0b7.
But the new released Th 8 anf final Lightning 1.0 are not willing to install it.
Can you check if it will work ? In the moment it will not install.
Thank you !
Bye, Peer

@Lukasz
thanks for the kind offer. For now, there is no problem hosting the modified addon at the current location. But ideally I would want to integrate the changes into the main development-branch.
I contacted Sebastian K. and he offered to give me access to the SVN at assembla.com -- as soon as I have that I will commit the changes to the SVN there (and probably discontinue to host the modified version).
Cheers Aaron.

Hello,
thank all of you for your effort. I installed the OxTender for Thunderbird 8.0 from russa. Now I run into an error while synchronizing the calendars. I get the following error message:
Warning not replying script
resource://calendar/modules/calUtils.jsm -> file:///C:/Users/michael/AppData/Roaming/Thunderbird/Profiles/tugsh4bf.default/extensions/%7BE6050BDA-F130-11DD-8931-239656D89593%7D/js/DatabaseManager.js:625
Any ideas about the problem? I already removed the calendars and reinitialized them.
Kind regards
Michael

Hello,
first of all: @russa: this is great work, thanks!!
I'm using oXtender 1.7.8.5 TB 8 from http://www.mathematik.uni-marburg.de/~russa/OXtender/ with TB8.0 and (surprise!) and lightning 1.0. My Oxtender Server is the new "Communicator 4" from Strato (a big german webhoster). OXtender4Thundrbirds says this is open-Xchange Version 6 and the "System Check succesful". Great so far.
I can sync the calendar without any problems, but can't sync addresses. OXtender creates two adresses in my addressbook: admin@example.com and the address which is usede by the open-Xchange account. Neither does it load the open-Xchange addressbook to Thunderbird nor does it upload the Thunderbird addressbook.
The logfile says:
--------------------------
init log service
Addon version 1.7.8-5
[JavaScript Warning: "getAttributeNodeNS() sollte nicht mehr verwendet werden. Verwenden Sie stattdessen getAttributeNS()." {file: "chrome://messenger/content/messenger.xul" line: 0}]
imap.strato.de : server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555
--------------------------
once an then
--------------------------
com4.strato.de : server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555
--------------------------
The open-Xchange Server is com4.strato.de, imap.strato.de is just used for the mail account.
Any ideas?
thanks,
Boas

It should be save to click "Continue" when this error-message appears, in order to allow the DatabaseManager to finish the synchronization.
If you get this error-message at lot, you may consider to change your preferences to limit the time-duration for sync'ing your appointments (--> "Calendar" --> "Sync past appointments") or disable automatic re-synchronization (--> "Extras" --> "Synchronization Interval").

you ae right it is a huge calendar or better several of them. I changed my response now to "Continue" the sync process. It is working but not as smooth as it should I think. The sync process is blocking Thunderbird for a period of 5 min. Thank you for your response above.
Kind regards
