A date like 21.7.2010, 14-15 will be converted to <2010-07-21 14:00-15:00> What is missing here is the day of the week. It should be (in German): <2010-07-21 Mi 14:00-15:00> That is not a problem for Orgmode which doesn't need the day of the week to display the entry correctly. But it's a problem for iCal-export. If you import this date into googlecalendar without manually fixing the weekday information, GoogleCalendar doesn't display the date correctly but handles it as a "whole-day"-entry (i.e. without the time information). I know the shortcoming is actually an iCal.el matter, but it could be fixed on the awk script level, I think. Greetings, Sven
