qtmoko calendar / google calendar

[Wesley Frazier]

Correct. I have my evil work email exchange based calendar published online
automatically. (A feature of Outlook 2007/2010) and then I have a cron job
which automatically tries to import this and my google calendar in once an
hour. Works pretty well as long as I can keep data stable. Somedays its rock
solid, someday I only seem to have cellular data for 15 minutes at a time.
Still working on that...

I uploaded a version 0.6 of the script on http://mossroy.free.fr/ics2qtcal/
It includes small fixes and improvements, based on the feedback of Weslay
Frazier on an Office online calendar.

Hope it might be useful to some of you.
