Hi Maduranga, Here are a few words about the possible works:
OpenMeetings now has its own calendar which now supports simple single events only. As a quick start you can register on demo.dataved.ru/openmeetings and try this: just select Home-> Calendar to enter the calendar and check. Eexport of the existing events using iCal generally is a simple task and I don't think it requires significant time. More interesting things which can be dona are: - Recurring event support according to iCal spec. - I don't know exactly is currently all OK with the time zone or not, maybe some improvemebts can be done - CalDav protocol support. In my vision, it should be a separate caldav servlet which works on the same tomcat as OpenMeetings itself. If we implement this, users can sync with the OpenMeeting events via standard calendar clients like MS Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird and. for example, create appointments in the real time. In my point of view it's the most difficult and interesting task, and definitelly it takes a lot of efforts.
