[kronolith] ical files SQL storage

[Harry Hoffman]

Chuck,
  Ok, I'm really confused then. When I create my calendar does an iCAL file get
stored somewhere on the web server for others to access? How does the
interaction happen, say between, Outlook users and Kronolith users?
  I've got down how iCAL works in terms of URL and format I'm just not sure how
Kronolith uses it. I'm sure I'm just not formulating the question correctly.
  I guess I was thinking LDAP/SQL because I wasn't sure where they would be
stored on the webserver, and also whether or not they should necessarily be
available to people outside of registered users.
  Does this make any sense or am I starting to babble?

Thanks,
Harry

*> This *is* available to Kronolith. Free-busy information is defined by a
*> standard; the information as generated by fb.php can be used currently by
*> programs like Outlook to do scheduling. Someone just needs to write a
