Hi Rasmus and list :)

Small updates:
 1. Integration of Rasmus' idea to support different calendars (thanks!)
 2. Support for publishing a new title of an event. 

The second one is a very limited form of sync'ing changes back to Google
Calendar, but suits my needs [2]. I updated the documentation to include
examples. Take a look if you're interested: http://goo.gl/rZU78


Cheers,
Felix

Footnotes:

[2] I add a hook to toggling the TODO state of an entry, and invoke the
script to update the event title if applicable. There's an example in
the script.
