;;; History:

;;  0.07 onwards: see lisp/ChangeLog

;;  0.06: Bugfixes regarding icalendar-import-format-*.
;;        Fix in icalendar-convert-diary-to-ical -- thanks to Philipp
;;        Grau.

;;  0.05: New import format scheme: Replaced icalendar-import-prefix-*,
;;        icalendar-import-ignored-properties, and
;;        icalendar-import-separator with icalendar-import-format(-*).
;;        icalendar-import-file and icalendar-convert-diary-to-ical
;;        have an extra parameter which should prevent them from
;;        erasing their target files (untested!).
;;        Tested with Emacs 21.3.2

;;  0.04: Bugfix: import: double quoted param values did not work
;;        Read DURATION property when importing.
;;        Added parameter icalendar-duration-correction.

;;  0.03: Export takes care of european-calendar-style.
;;        Tested with Emacs 21.3.2 and XEmacs 21.4.12

;;  0.02: Should work in XEmacs now.  Thanks to Len Trigg for the
;;        XEmacs patches!
;;        Added exporting from Emacs diary to ical.
;;        Some bugfixes, after testing with calendars from
;;        http://icalshare.com.
;;        Tested with Emacs 21.3.2 and XEmacs 21.4.12

;;  0.01: First published version.  Trial version.  Alpha version.

;; ======================================================================
;; To Do:

;;  * Import from ical to diary:
;;    + Need more properties for icalendar-import-format
;;    + check vcalendar version
;;    + check (unknown) elements
;;    + recurring events!
;;    + works for european style calendars only! Does it?
;;    + alarm
;;    + exceptions in recurring events
;;    + the parser is too soft
;;    + error log is incomplete
;;    + nice to have: #include "webcal://foo.com/some-calendar.ics"

;;  * Export from diary to ical
;;    + diary-date, diary-float, and self-made sexp entries are not
;;      understood
;;    + timezones, currently all times are local!

;;  * Other things
;;    + clean up all those date/time parsing functions
;;    + Handle todo items?
;;    + Check iso 8601 for datetime and period
;;    + Which chars to (un)escape?
