;;; Commentary:

;; This package is documented in the Emacs Manual.

;;   Please note:
;; - Diary entries which have a start time but no end time are assumed to
;;   last for one hour when they are exported.
;; - Weekly diary entries are assumed to occur the first time in the first
;;   week of the year 2000 when they are exported.
;; - Yearly diary entries are assumed to occur the first time in the year
;;   1900 when they are exported.

;;; History:

;;  0.07 onwards: see lisp/ChangeLog

;;  0.06:  (2004-10-06)
;;  - Bugfixes regarding icalendar-import-format-*.
;;  - Fix in icalendar-convert-diary-to-ical -- thanks to Philipp Grau.

;;  0.05: (2003-06-19)
;;  - 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: (2003-05-07)
;;  - 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: (2003-03-21)
;;  - First published version.  Trial version.  Alpha version.

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

;;  * Import from ical to diary:
;;    + Need more properties for icalendar-import-format
;;      (added all that Mozilla Calendar uses)
;;      From iCal specifications (RFC2445: 4.8.1), icalendar.el lacks
;;      ATTACH, CATEGORIES, COMMENT, GEO, PERCENT-COMPLETE (VTODO),
;;      PRIORITY, RESOURCES) not considering date/time and time-zone
;;    + 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"
;;    + timezones probably still need some improvements.

;;  * Export from diary to ical
;;    + diary-date, diary-float, and self-made sexp entries are not
;;      understood

;;  * 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?
