Peter,
I tried using this feature yesterday to do an import into Outlook 2003. I got an error with the iCal format saying it was an invalid file so I used the vCal format instead. The import seemed to work but many of the events actually showed up a day early in Outlook (than the day the appear on the online calendar) -- it doesn't happen with every event, just some of them -- it may just be with events that don't have a time associated with them (at least the time doesn't show up on the month view). Are you aware of this bug?
Has the church also considered making a ward directory download available as well? Making it easy to import the ward list into electronic devices would also be a big win.

We pushed a change to production that should make the calendars
usable in ical (needed a carriage return on the last line of the
file.) I've been told there are some issues with import into
koffice (apparently with commas in the body of the text) but I
don't think it makes sense for us to start mangling the content
of the description to accommodate the idiosyncrasies of different
calendar applications - rather we'll leave those for filters
executed by the end-user.
Please provide feedback, especially if you see areas where
the ical and/or vcal outputs don't adhere to their specs.
