krow's Journal: Calendar Stuff

For those geeks among you (or hey, say you want to know what is happening in my life!):
http://krow.net/calendar.ics

This is a perl Apache handler for iCal formats. It is using the same setup that Apple uses when you publish via iCal (the display code is obvisously different, I should ask someone who has .Mac account to give me a screenshot). This of course is coming from Evolution since that is what I use daily, I could easily have my Mac share the file. Its a little slow at the moment but I could solve that by caching the page, or I could just parse the data into the DB which would make this a bit faster. At the moment it is parsing the file for each page view.

You can find the source at:

I was at home on lunch, from a Solaris 8 box w/ netscrape 4.7. Now that I'm at work it seems to work as expected on my FreeBSD w/ mozilla. I duno man... probably just the setup I got at home. No worries!

Now then, this looks like something I would use, and I've been needing a calender app for some time now.... I asume this is a standard Brian apache mod, right? That I can somehow give this thing one of those darn .ics files that people send me from their outlook client here at work, yes? That would be kewl, because I hear those .ics files are some sort of standard format, and I was actually thinking about writing something to parse them too! So you might have beat me too it! =)

/me goes to look at the sources.

NHL

Don't know if you like hockey, but I recently whipped up NHL calendars for iCal, available here [celsius1414.com]. I'm working on getting them converted for the Moz calendar project too.
