Hmm, looks interesting. It's using a library called libgcal which is written 
in C and supports only the contacts/calendar (as far as I can tell) 
(http://code.google.com/p/libgcal/).

 Does KDE currently depend on libxml and/or libcurl? Would adding a libgcal 
(optional) dependency be reasonable for this later?

If so, awesome, I might help this guy with his implementation. I'm vaguely 
tempted to try and write our own pure-Qt implementation of the API (as it 
would be useful for plasmoids and could be extended to a great scope than 
libgcal).

Thoughts?
