Hi Carsten

Did you see my follow-up email? (reproduced below)

The problem appears to be caused by a change from VEVENT to VTODO in
org-icalendar.el. Of course, the change may be correct and google
calendar just does not support VTODO.




I just discovered some entries in google calendar which comes from an
org export to ics that was done half a year ago. They use VEVENT (as
opposed to VTODO).

This works

BEGIN:VEVENT
UID: TS-9164991C-7E1A-4D65-8A44-3674B236A836
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20090621
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20090622
SUMMARY:leg press
DESCRIPTION: <2009-06-21 Sun>\nfik tips fra Martin om l...
CATEGORIES:privat
END:VEVENT

Does not work (test9365.ics)

BEGIN:VTODO
UID: TODO-34C3192F-21FE-48C1-BFD7-7934B51D03A3
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20100201
SUMMARY:feb1
CATEGORIES:test9365
SEQUENCE:1
PRIORITY:5
STATUS:NEEDS-ACTION
END:VTODO

If i change the first todo in test9365.ics to use VEVENT and save it
at http://ozymandias.dk/test/test9365c.ics then the event shows up in
google calendar.
