I have searched for several weeks now for an up-to-date tutorial on sharing event data. I am running multiple sites using Drupal 6. One of the sites has an event calendar that most of the others need to replicate while also being able to add their own events. I have successfully implemented sharing using the iCal view on the main site and the feeds module with the iCal parser on a client. Unfortunately, I can't get the iCal feed to include any additional fields. I need to have taxonomy information and a few other fields shared. I've also tried to create an XML feed view on the main sight for the feeds XML parser on the client, but I couldn't get it to work.

Unfortunately, the easiest
Unfortunately, the easiest way to get this done the way you'd like would be to use a Domain Access approach instead of standard Drupal multi-site approach; the former makes it much easier to share content between sites. In fact, I myself have set up a DA multi-site installation which currently has thirteen sites or so that shares events between sites much in this way. Are you not yet far enough along in your project that switching to DA would still be feasible?
