Interesting, and looks like it could potentially be useful. The next
thing I would do is go on to have customised listings so that you don't
see all the shows that you aren't interested in, although that could be
potentially hard to implement depending on how you do it, and possibly
try getting data for other channels such as ITV, Channel 4, etc
(probably from the radio times site, as I think that is the only place
that it is available in a nice format).
I can't help but notice that this is your first post on the mailing
list, so welcome. Always nice seeing new people around here.
Keep up the good work,
Duncan

Hello,
I noticed the idea on backstage.bbc.co.uk for iCal publishing of the 7day
TV/radio feed, so I did a quick prototype. Please check it out, iCals
available here:
http://mike260.dyndns.org/~mikef/bbc_ical/
It's only tested with iCal, and likely broken for other apps.
The server will come and go, and has a pitifully slow internet connection,
so please don't rely on it staying put. Annoyingly, if the server's offline
then my router may offer you a login into its setup screen - ignore this and
try again later.
Anyway, it works reasonably well...it's nice to be able to search the
telly/radio schedules with spotlight.
Comments and suggestions would be much appreciated. Very poor-quality Python
source to follow, if anyone wants it.
Cheers
