Yeah... that might work. In fact Milan implemented that for Evolution when I first started looking at it: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=787418 https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution/commit/?id=59dad90040 My concern was that I didn't want to just invoke Evolution — users might be using something different. But of course doing it through xdg-open resolves that. The other reason for favouring D-Bus was that if nothing was set up, we should just display simple text box to the user with the required information, saying "cut and paste this into your calendar". But as long as we either get a meaningful exit code from xdg-open, or perhaps have a lowest-priority handler for it which invokes xmessage or something nasty, I think that's OK too. I don't see why it couldn't be done with passing ical files. I'll take a look... thanks.
