I'm a big user of iCal feed parsing in D6 using FeedAPI to consume Google Calendars for display in Calendar views. The idea being that the canonical source of calendaring data is sourced outside of Drupal in whatever Calendaring app the user naturally uses. In D7, there is no real progress on an iCal Feed Parser for Feeds, the successor to FeedAPI. I'm a little surprised that such a functional need hasn't been addressed yet over six months after D7's release. I wonder: is there an obvious workaround or alternate venue for this functionality in D7 that I'm not aware of? Thoughts, suggestions and help are appreciated.
