Hi Clint,

Thanks for the feedback and the encouragements.

I agree that a iCal/Caldav support is a MUST for this project,
unfortunately time-wise it might be limited for me the coming months.
I should try to see if iCal might not be easier to support than Caldav
though, even if I start by having a read-only calendar.

Maírín said that she could help with the design and today iambryan
offered to help as well on the project and we you on board, the team is
growing fast!

To me the first objective is to clarify and stabilize the code and make
it looks nicer (both the code and the website).
The iCal/Caldav feature will come afterward once there are sufficient
unit-tests coverage :)

In the meanwhile, please send bug reports and RFE, I'll keep a TODO file
within the project to not lose track of them.

Regards,
Pierre
