Hi iCal maintainers,

First and foremost, thank you for providing and maintaining what looks to
be a very comprehensive implementation of iCal.I have a question which I
couldn't find in the doc/src/test code which I'm hoping someone can advise.

My partner at the moment is entering her work schedule for the coming N
weeks manually which is time-consuming and I am sure there is a better way.
I have written a parser which takes the schedule in HTML format and parses
out the shifts.Originally I was going to export this to .csv and then
upload it to Google to get back an .ics file containing everything, but
when I came across libical it is hopefully possible to skip the upload to
google step.

Has anyone used/can the library be used for this purpose? i.e. serialising
back to ICS file format?

Kind regards/thanks in advance,
Marcus
