[SLUG] Merry Christmas to you "Down Under"

[Michael Hayder]

First I want to introduce my self. I am Mic Hayder from Munich
(Germany), Linux User Group Munich.. I wish you all a "Merry Christmas".
I have read a small announcement (found with google) that you have a
webcal online Calendar (for your Meetings etc,
webcal://www.slug.org.au/events/event.ics). Maybe I am stupid but I have
a webdav webserver here which is working quit fine with mozilla/calendar
(read/write), based on http://foo.bar/mic.ics

Now evolution can use your webcal://foo.bar calendar. But I am not able
to use webcal://foo.bar/mic.ics.. My problem is I could not find out how
to enable webcal:// on my webserver or what program is necessary to use
it. Can you send me examples from your webserver 

Thank you very much.
and Greetinxx from good old Europe.
mic

slug.org.au/events/event.ics uses a custom written perl script
written by me (and with a few bugfixes by others ;)
Its written using HTML::Embperl, but it should be obvious how to
convert it to a simple CGI script.

It generates the iCal entry from a row in a PostgreSQL
database. Source is available from
 http://slug.org.au/source.html?path=/events/event.ics

All webcal:// is, is a funky way to make links so that evolution
and apps such as iCal can pick them up when you click them.

Fact is, under the hood, all webcal:// is, is another way of writing
http://, and that's all it will appear as to a webserver.

Cheers,
Chris
