NOTE: This version was released on github some days ago. I’d held  
off releasing it on RubyForge because right now the gitosis server on  
RubyForge is broken. I was waiting for TC to fix it because I didn’t  
want the source repo there to be out of sync with the released gem,  
but someone reported a bug which had already been fixed so I decided  
it would be better to refresh the gem on RubyForge.

For the time being the latest source is on github, but RF is behind.

That said:

ri\_cal version 0.8.2 has been released!

- [http://ri-cal.rubyforge.org/](http://ri-cal.rubyforge.org/)
- 

A new Ruby implementation of RFC2445 iCalendar.

The existing Ruby iCalendar libraries (e.g. icalendar, vpim) provide  
for parsing and generating icalendar files,  
but do not support important things like enumerating occurrences of  
repeating events.

This is a clean-slate implementation of RFC2445.

A Google group for discussion of this library has been set up  
[http://groups.google.com/group/rical\_gem](http://groups.google.com/group/rical_gem)
