[chandler-users] problem while importing ics-files

[Mimi Yin]

Hi Thomas,

Your issues seems different from the one reported in bug 3006, since  
that user seemed to be able to get calendars with SEQUENCE or LAST- 
MODIFIED attributes into Chandler without errors.

I'm not sure how else to help you. I can ask one of the developers to  
take a look at your .ics file so they can diagnose what is failing.  
Right now, they're heads on working on the re-architecture project -  
http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2008-September/ 
010300.html

However, I am pulling together a weekly summary of users-list issues  
that the devs should take a look at and since you seem to be  
completely blocked on getting your data into Chandler, I'll include  
this in my summary.


Thanks for your patience,
Mimi
