One idea could be to run it only with one template, maybe called ical and all variables in it should conform to ical format. The ical people probably developped some not so bad standard for storing calendar data. The "only" work then would be do display the data.

Problem

Gero said he thinks about new calendar - and that it would maybe run with categories and templates.

One idea could be to run it only with one template, maybe called ical and all variables in it should conform to ical format. The ical people probably developped some not so bad standard for storing calendar data. The "only" work then would be do display the data.

It would probably also be easy then to have a ical conform output, probably via a special page.

Will it be possible to have an input form for that? There are lot of people that are not so good at editing wiki code. Also by editing wiki code they can do a lot of mistakes.

possible issues - ical
  • can have the same variable several times
  • uses : instead of = for assigning values to variables and uses = in values.
  • there can also be ; in variable names
