Hi all,

I really like the iCalendar export.  I'm using that to export all my
agenda files when I save them, and import the ics files in KOrganizer,
so that I also have a visual agenda.

But there's one thing which might be a bug.  I have this TODO entry:

*** TODO Einteilung für Nacht der Informatik machen
    <2010-06-08 Tue>

When I export the file containing that entry to iCalendar, what I get is
one VTODO with SUMMARY "Einteilung für Nacht der Informatik machen",
which has no due date.  Additionally, there's one VEVENT on 2010-06-08
with SUMMARY "TODO Einteilung für Nacht der Informatik machen".

If I set that date as DEADLINE, there's only one VTODO appearing on the
deadline date.  But for simple, short tasks that have to be done on a
given date, I prefer not to use DEADLINE, so that it doesn't show up on
previous days in the org agenda.

So IMHO, TODO entries should always become one VTODO each and no VEVENT,
and if there's no DEADLINE in org, then the normal date should be set as
DUE-date.

Bye,
Tassilo
