I have used Org-mode version 7.9.3f (release_7.9.3f-17-g7524ef @ /usr/share/emacs/24.3/lisp/org/). In that version the export of the .org file listed below works fine. Using Org-mode version 8.2.10 I have seen those issues: - All subjects have got the timestamp in the subject - Duration is the default duration even for even for events with a time-interval - Events with time-interval is show double This is a minor issue if I can specify duration in another way - Location is missing - UID format changed from starting with "UID: TS-" to "UID:TS-" - Not an issue, if I remove old events before next export. Should I format the org-file in another way? - I can't find any examples. I would like to upgrade to the new org-mode for exporting calendar entries to get rid of the old org-mode and because there are needed some work arounds using the old exporter. I normally uses it for importing into various google calenders. ... maybe I should do it in another way.

Hi
I use org-mode for exporting to ical files, but the "new"= exporter in org-mode v. 8 gives me problems.

I have used <= span class=3D"gI">Org-mode version 7.9.3f (release_7.9.3f-17-g7524ef = @ /usr/share/emacs/24.3/lisp/org/). In that version the expor= t of the .org file listed below works fine.

Using Org-mode version 8.2.10 I have seen those i= ssues:
- All subjects have got the timestamp in the subject
- Duration is the default duration= even for even for events with a time-interval
= =C2=A0=C2=A0 - Events with time-interval is show d= ouble
=C2=A0This is a minor issue if I can specify duration in another w= ay
- Location is missi= ng
- UID format change= d from starting with "UID: TS-" to "UID:TS<number>-&qu= ot;
=C2=A0 - Not an is= sue, if I remove old events before next export.

<= span>Should I format the org-file in another way? - I can't find any ex= amples.

I= would like to upgrade to the new org-mode for exporting calendar entries t= o get rid of the old org-mode and because there are needed some work around= s using the old exporter.

I normally = uses it for importing into various google calenders. ... maybe I should do = it in another way.
