Ah, interesting. I probably should have checked that link before
recommending looking at the code...
In the meantime, I attach my current version of this awk script which
does differ to what is on Worg in some subtle ways but the differences
should not matter for many use cases.

# awk script for converting an iCal formatted file to a sequence of org-mode headings.
# this may not work in general but seems to work for day and timed events from Google's
# calendar, which is really all I need right now...
#
# usage:
# awk -f THISFILE < icalinputfile.ics > orgmodeentries.org --assign NAME=category
#
# where the category is used to define a CATEGORY for all entries in
# the file and also assign that label as a tag to each entry
#
# Note: change org meta information generated below for author and
# email entries!
#
# Known bugs:
# - not so much a bug as a possible assumption: date entries with no time
# specified are assumed to be independent of the time zone.
#
# Eric S Fraga
# 20100629 - initial version
# 20100708 - added end times to timed events
# - adjust times according to time zone information
# - fixed incorrect transfer for entries with ":" embedded within the text
# - added support for multi-line summary entries (which become headlines)
# 20100709 - incorporated time zone identification
# - fixed processing of continuation lines as Google seems to
# have changed, in the last day, the number of spaces at
# the start of the line for each continuation...
# - remove backslashes used to protect commas in iCal text entries
# no further revision log after this as the file was moved into a git
# repository...
#
