I brought this up when Sam released his first code. At the time, he
showed little interest.

As far as iCalendar goes, it's merely a feature set and higher level
protocol to exchange calendar information between clients.

It doesn't define an on disk storage format and there is no standard for
a client/server setup either.

The little that I looked at the calendar code in courier made it look
like it's a subset of the iCalendar feature set.

I think we could implement a libical backend for the storage format Sam
developed which would cover the higher level protocol atleast.
