Hi John, Thanks for the response.
I wish it were that simple. I work for a large public university in California with many many disparate calendar applications of varying technologies. If you can think it up then I guarantee we're using it somewhere on this campus. So, I'm not building an end-to-end solution. It's frustrating because the protocol supports extended properties and Google supports storing and querying extended properties. But I'm yet to find any applications that puts the extensibility into the hands of the end user. I'm hoping that someone knows of addons or utilities that supplement the most common calendar management applications?

But this requires heavy non-standards publisher cooperation. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Calendar Data API" group.
