oh it has - just not on this list yet ;)

the first thing to realize is that iCal doesn't let you subscribe to
arbitrary CalDAV calendars. you still have to use the old iCal 2
"webcal" style read-only subscription for those.

what you *can* do is tell iCal about your Cosmo account and let it
find all of your own published calendars. to do this, you have to know
what iCal calls your "account URL". on Hub, this would be
<https://hub.chandlerproject.org/dav/users/{username}>. once you've
set up this account, you should see it added to the sidebar with a
calendar for every Cosmo collection (except ones you have made
yourself manually using a WebDAV client).

we haven't really discussed how this fits in with our
collection-specific sharing features, so there aren't any instructions
in Cosmo yet for setting up iCal 3. i guess we need to have a design
discussion about it.
