Subscribing to my Plans Cal Bugs

[m35]

I'm trying to subscribe to my Plans Calendar with my Google Calendar.
I've run into 2 critical, and 2 problematic bugs:

1) DTSTAMP value error. This one is easy to fix:
DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE:$rightnow_date --> DTSTAMP:$rightnow_date

2) ORGANIZER value error (spaces are not allowed, so "Main Calendar"
will fail).
But ORGANIZER is supposed to be an email or something, so the calendar
title doesn't seem to be valid anyway. Easy fix:

ORGANIZER:$cal_title --> delete

3) Calendar items are showing up not in my local time-zone.
It would be helpful if all dates were exported in the GMT timezone.

4) .ics files not being updated, and/or containing deleted entries.
I can't figure out what's going on here. Adding and deleting calendar
entries isn't casuing the .ics files to update. I even delete the .ics
files, and/delete calendar entries, and the .ics files are
regenerated, but still with obsolete info. This may also have been
reported previously (http://groups.google.com/group/planscalendar/
browse_thread/thread/a4356eef87e2ab3a/e629d8ef3f177277?
hl=en&lnk=gst&q=subscribe#e629d8ef3f177277)

Any help with these items would be appreciated. Thanks.

Note: Helper site will validate .ics files.

This is my first time writing perl. Enjoy ;)

Attached is a fixed version of plans_lib.pl (based on 8.1.10).

Fixes:
* Updates .ics files when events are deleted.
* Corrected .ics file errors
* The additional logic to check if the .ics file should be generated is
faulty -- disabled the check so it always updates.

Unfortunately I've since leaned that these fixes aren't going to help my
particular situation much because Google Calendar is pretty crappy.

My feature list has been growing pretty fast, so I may need a more
complicated collaboration system. But this is a great little tool.
Thanks for providing it.

The fixes look good. Thanks very much for the contribution - I'll
merge it into the next release.

Thanks again!
