Based on what you outline, are you sure you need to do this development
locally within Java and the Cosmo code?  There are other ways.

A fine way to interact with the ics files inside Cosmo is to use a library
like curl (as you mention PHP) to retrieve the contents of the ics file, see
if it matches the time you want, then trigger an action from a remote
server, using technologies you're currently comfortable with.  Could you be
more specific about the types of operations you'd like to perform?
