I just updated the wiki page for import/export.

http://chandlerproject.org/Projects/ChandlerDesktopImportExport

Out of the box Outlook doesn't let you export an entire calendar in  
ics (who knows why). There are some third party tools, one that we  
link to now in that document (littlemachines) that can help you  
export an entire calendar from outlook.
