Subject: [Vpim-talk] 0.14 - bug fix release
Message-ID: <20050202031713.GA1031@ensemble.local>


iCalendar has a bug in its emitted calendars. RRULEs don't work the way
they think they do, and I don't know what to do about it. Anyhow, one
thing I can do is not die when a recurrence rule never recurs, and that
is done.

Thanks to Akira Tagoh for tracking this down and posting a fix.

Due to him, there may be Debian packages soon for vPim.

Cheers,
Sam

Last few changelogs:

0.14 - 2005-02-01

- Fix: if an RRULE didn't ever yield an event (a bug in the rule) dountil was never tested.

- Change: don't throw an ArgumentError with infinite events, just stop when the
  Time is no longer representable

0.13 - 2005-01-20

- Was calling to_time with an arg, fixed.

Its in the release, in the samples/ sub-directory.

What are you trying to do?

You should be aware that you need ruby-cocoa in order to use it (that's
what is "wrapped").

Cheers,
Sam

I don't know about "active". But its there, seems to work. You need
to know about obj-c to use the ruby bindings.

If you want to access AB from the cmd line, install lbdb (little brother
DB), it has a cmd-line tool to query the AB, I use it from inside
mutt now (its way faster than ruby).
