Thank you Mario.

I am encouraged (as a noob) to see that this TW5 pond is dynamic and responsive.

It bodes well for the project.

I think, that was a reason, for may of us to get / be interested in TW.

    Given the age of TWK, I suspected that experienced hands might
    have tackled common data representation problems long ago.


There is a possibility to import .CSV file content into tiddlers, which probably solved many "batch import" problems. The .tid and tiddlywiki .json format is easy enough to be created by many systems. ... So I think batch processing was solved that way.

Your desire is a bit different.

    Of course, time and events are core to our lives. I envisaged that
    maybe there was a handle .ics to (favorable Tiddler format)
    already created by a kind coder.


I don't think so. .. but there are several "calendar" projects.

see: https://dynalist.io/d/zUP-nIWu2FFoXH-oM7L7d9DM#q=calendar

    I even surmised that there was a Tiddler or some coding of fields
    that could render a Calendar (block or linear).


see: link above.

    I should probably clam up until I learn about the various Data
    Tiddlers that seem to exist.


We (I) don't want to "calm you down", if that is what you wanted to write. It's always good to see ideas and problems, that new users have.
So just keep posting ;)

    That said CONTACT representation (.vcf conversion) is of far
    greater gravity.  And TonyM has been most kind in giving direction
    there.


Yea, we could have had the same discussion at your other thread. IMO vCARD and iCAL formats are similar enough to be parsed by the same code. ... The usecases are different.


As you wrote in your OP:

    TiddlyWiki is my new attempt to liberate myself from the tyranny
    of Apple, Google and Microsoft-readable data (in the areas their
    AI knows to look!)


...made me think, that you need a lot more and different functionality from TW, that it actually has. eg: Activate the call-app from within a TW contact.

Also exchanging vCards with other systems ... Which basically means, that we need a proper UI in TW to deal with that kind of info. ... and so on.

have fun!
