FIX ME: add more content here. " > First off sorry for the delay in replying. Yesterday was spent on a cross country (US) flight. No email checks :(. Long story... I got the idea to add calendar functionality to Jetspeed. While researching calendaring, I found the iCalendar Internet RFC. It defines a set of data objects that can be used for exchange of calendaring information. So users of calendar clients such as outlook can exchange their information with other calendar clients (whether it be outlook or not). As long as the other client understands the standard information can be shared. This will be used two ways. 1. As a backend for a web based calendar. 2. Facilitate sharing of calendar information between calendar clients such as Outlook and Organizer. AFAIK, This is the second open source implementation of the iCalendar standard and the only one in the Java Language. The other implementation is libical which is written in C (or C++). I havent really checked it out though. It is under the MPL. > So, I would be the most happy of the men if someone could explain where I > can find the iCalendar module and how I can install it :) > Stay tuned for details on installing and using iCalendar. We are (as I mentioned in a previous mail) in the process of separating jetspeed and icalendar. A release should follow shortly after.
