oddities with ical export

I just noticed that org-diary-class is not suppoerte in ical export

Carsten told me that sexps are not supported by org


But I have a problem now!

I tried  3 ways to generate a work that repeats each 3 days.

***** Appt: Work
      <2010-02-01 Seg 18:15-18:30 +3d>

***** 18:15-18:30 Appt: Work
      <2010-02-01 Seg +3d>

***** Appt: Work
%%(diary-cyclic 3 1 2 2010) 6:30pm Appt: Work


All of them appear in Agenda View but none appears in the .ics file

Is there a way to "design around" this limitation?

It is quite important to me now that I am using gcaldaemon
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gcaldaemon
to sync my Google calendar files

I cannot reproduce this with Org-mode version 6.36trans on GNU Emacs
 23.2.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.20.0) of 2010-05-16 on
 raven, modified by Debian.

Exporting this example to iCal (C-c C-e i) creates:

I have the same problem. Actually, /none/ of my entries with associated
dates wind up in the resulting "ics" file.

Oh: Setting `org-icalender-include-todo' did the trick. Entries with
tags wind up with the tags appended to the headline string, which looks
pretty weird and needs to be cleaned up.

When I import the "ics" file into Apple's iCal program, it shows all the
org-generated entries as "To Do Items", but none of them actually appear
on the calendar, as if they have no dates attached. The "ics" file
entries have a few kinds of DTSTART values, but iCal doesn't represent
any of them on teh calendar itself.
