I've posted an initial release of vobject (license is Apache, I'll write 
that up somewhere Real Soon Now).  vobject is intended to do the heavy 
lifting of parsing and dealing with the semantics of icalendar files 
(eventually, it'll do vCard, too, but not yet).

http://vobject.skyhouseconsulting.com

Version 0.1 should:
- Parse iCalendar files, as long as they don't contain unicode, or start 
with a UTF BOM (I was TRYING to get it to work with unicode, I haven't 
succeeded yet)
- Timezones will be parsed and applied to dates
- Recurrence data, once parsed, is made available as a list of datetimes 
with appropriate tzinfo classes

Serializing works, but recurring rules will be serialized as collections 
of individual dates, not as the original rules.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey Harris
