iCal goodness
Today I remembered that iCal can share calendars via WebDAV. I also discovered this iCalender formatted file for
ETCon 2004. There's also a great source of calendars at iCalShare. Here's a good application for RSS. I want my aggregator to subscribe to an RSS feed of available calendars and then I want to hit a button and have the calendar downloaded / subscribed to.
This is really making me look forward to cool stuff that we'll be able to do in Chandler once we get a working calendar.

I like iCal as well: my current quest is for a way to migrate a Yahoo! calendar to iCal's ics format. There is a sourceforge project that seems to have been OK in Jaguar but not in Panther. It didn't occur to me til just now to try it in FreeBSD's java . . . .

Shouldn't be tough; just set the <link> field of each RSS item to a webcal:// URL. Voila.
