[Linux4christians] HTML Calendar

[David Fierbaugh]

The new Linux Journal (June 2005) has a pretty good intro to iCalendar files, 
and explains how to implement them over the web. It's not a full fledged 
start-to-finish howto, but more of an intro, with some example code.

It's not a guide to a finished product, but might be useful reading.....
