What is PloneiCalendar ?
PloneiCalendar is a product designed by Ingeniweb to handle calendar
files in Plone.
It is based on the iCalendar file format. iCalendar can be used to
transport personal calendaring information between applications of your
choice whether they are personal information managers, email systems or
web browsers.
Once an iCalendar is created in Plone, you can share it with other
users or groups, browse it by day, week and month or modify it
by using standard calendar applications like Mozilla calendar or iCal.
