rss and ical for warhorn

i spent yesterday afternoon adding RSS feeds to warhorn.net 1.5.0 (hopefully releasing by the end of May). there are feeds for upcoming conventions, recurring game days, past conventions (cos i'm a completist), and for each event. now it's easy to tell when a new event is scheduled or when somebody signs up for a game. awesome. i don't know why i didn't get around to this before now.

i'd also like to add iCal integration like that of upcoming.org - when on an event site, click a button to add a calendar to iCal. i need to be able to generate an iCalendar view of a game, though, and i can't find any PHP iCalendar utilities. the closest thing i could find was PHP iCalendar, but its iCalendar parser/generator code doesn't appear to be easily extractable. lame. you'd think something like this would be in PEAR already. and in fact it seems like they talked about it a couple years ago on the PEAR dev mailing list, but nothing seems to have come of it.
