Picking up an old thread, as I try to catch up on my design list reading:

As it happens, iCalendar has the notion of a sequence number associated
with events, an event can be serialized as a sequence of revisions.  At
the moment Chandler ignores the sequence number, but this is a bug.
It's not clear to me how the iCalendar model of versioning will interact
with what Chandler needs, but we wouldn't be starting from nothing.

Sincerely,
