Well, the question is if it will work for 100% e.g. hwo does he solve the
GUID issue? (OL needs the GUID and a lot of other internal data of a
calendar item in order to keep internal references correct)

So basically this means that the plugin must not only be able to write
(easy) but also to read the vcals in all their beauty.
