Eugene,

Below is from the iCalander documentation that was on the Jetspeed site. 
  Although I an not sure why, it is not part of the current release.

Their has been some interest in a calendar portlet in Jetspeed.  Would 
you like to contribute?

  What is iCalendar?

Jetspeed (as of 1.2b1) implements a subset of RFC 2445 or iCalendar.

 From RFC 2445: There is a clear need to provide and deploy 
interoperable calendaring and scheduling services for the Internet. 
Current group scheduling and Personal Information Management (PIM) 
products are being extended for use across the Internet, today, in 
proprietary ways. iCalendar is an internet RFC that addresses 
communication between calendaring clients. It defines a set of objects 
and a method for writing those objects to a character output stream. Any 
client which understands the iCalendar protocol should be able to share 
appointment , to-do, and other calendar information with any other 
calendar client or server.

iCalendar status

iCalendar was made a separate module from Jetspeed, since it is a 
general utility.

Unfortunately, currently it has lost visibility in the jakarta project. 
If you are interested in contributing to a portable implementation of 
RFC2445, please contact Jeff Prickett([EMAIL PROTECTED]).
