GNOME Bounty - Calendar

Monday, December 19th, 2005

GNOME has a number of open source bounties available for completion, ranging in difficulty and payout. The following Calendar project is worth $2000:

Publish your calendar

Apple’s iCal has made “calendar sharing” popular. It’s a nice feature where any user can create a calendar of events and then publish it on a website, to share it with other users. Others can then “subscribe” their calendar application to that calendar file, and updates are automatically synced to their imported calendar whenever the master file changes. This makes it easy and convenient to share conference schedules, meeting times, club events, moving dates and times and so on.

Implement this calendar publishing feature in Evolution.
