Just as a possibility, what about using the diary syntax for dates in this case? I have successfully done repeating tasks from $STARTDATE to $ENDDATE using something like: %%(and (diary-block ...) (diary-cyclic ...)) I believe that this format for dates can now be placed into a standard org-mode date delimiter as well.

It does: * Traverse the iCalendar using `icalendar.el' and constructs a struct for each event * Format each struct via a (userdefined) formatstring * Convert times to orgmode timestrings (limitations below) It does not (at the moment): * Fully translate VEVENTs to org mode entries and only captures a few (sensible) attributes * Convert iCalendar recurrences to org recurrences[2] * Use "Duration" to determine endtime * (I'm quite sure there's more, it's very young) I'm aware of Doug Hellmann's `ical2org', but for the functionality it didn't fulfill my needs and for the name, well I didn't come to a better one yet, suggestions are welcome. The same holds for the code, patches or ideas to fix the shortcomings are highly appreciated.
