[Ietf-caldav] CalDAV Client work?

[Lisa Dusseault]

Right now, integration would be barely possible but certainly not 
stable.  Until we move to publishing something based on a standard 
format, other projects could integrate with Chandler as a one-off 
project -- not too hard but certainly extra work.  The attributes 
Chandler uses internally aren't pure iCalendar data, although of course 
there's some similarity.
