Description: ==========================================================
        Internet Calendaring and Scheduling (iCalendar) for Python
        ==========================================================
        
        The `icalendar`_ package is a parser/generator of iCalendar files for use
        with Python.

        Changes in version 3.0
        ======================
        
        API Change
        ----------
        
        Since version we unified to icalendar de/serialization API to use only to_ical
        (for writing an ical string from the internal representation) and from_ical
        (for parsing an ical string into the internal representation).
        
        to_ical is now used instead of the methods ical, string, as_string and instead
        of string casting via __str__ and str.
        
        from_ical is now used instead of from_string.
        
        This change is a requirement for future Python 3 compatibility. Please update
        your code to reflect to the new API.
        
        Timezone support
        ----------------
        
        Timezones are now fully supported in icalendar for serialization and
        deserialization. We use the pytz library for timezone components of datetime
        instances. The timezone identifiers must be valid pytz respectively Olson
        database timezone identifiers. This can be a problem for 'GMT' identifiers,
        which are not defined in the Olson database.
        
        Instead of the own UTC tzinfo implementation we use pytz UTC tzinfo object now.
        
        
        
        About this fork which is not a fork anymore
        ===========================================
        
        Aim of this fork (not fork anymore, read further) was to bring this package up
        to date with latest icalendar `RFC`_ specification as part of
        `plone.app.event`_ project which goal is to bring recurrent evens to `Plone`_.
        
        After some thoughts we (Plone developers involved with `plone.app.event`_) send
        a suggestion to icalendar-dev@codespeak.net to take over mainaining of
        `icalendar`_. Nobody object and since version 2.2 we are back to development.

        Changelog
        =========
        
        
        3.0.1b2 (2012-03-01)
        --------------------
        
        * For all TZID parameters in DATE-TIME properties, use timezone identifiers
          (e.g. Europe/Vienna) instead of timezone names (e.g. CET), as required by
          RFC5545. Timezone names are used together with timezone identifiers in the
          Timezone components.
          [thet]
        
        * Timezone parsing, issues and test fixes.
          [mikaelfrykholm, garbas, tgecho]
        
        * Since we use pytz for timezones, also use UTC tzinfo object from the pytz 
          library instead of own implementation.
          [thet]
        
        3.0.1b1 (2012-02-24)
        ------------------
        
        * Update Release information.
          [thet]
        
        3.0
        ---
        
        * Add API for proper Timezone support. Allow creating ical DATE-TIME strings
          with timezone information from Python datetimes with pytz based timezone
          information and vice versa.
          [thet]
        
        * Unify API to only use to_ical and from_ical and remove string casting as a
          requirement for Python 3 compatibility:
          New: to_ical.
          Old: ical, string, as_string and string casting via __str__ and str.
          New: from_ical.
          Old: from_string.
          [thet]
        
        2.2 (2011-08-24)
        ----------------
        
        * migration to https://github.com/collective/icalendar using svn2git preserving
          tags, branches and authors.
          [garbas]
        
        * using tox for testing on python 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.6.
          [garbas]
        
        * fixed tests so they pass also under python 2.7.
          [garbas]
        
        * running tests on https://jenkins.plone.org/job/icalendar (only 2.6 for now)
          with some other metrics (pylint, clonedigger, coverage).
          [garbas]
        
        * review and merge changes from https://github.com/cozi/icalendar fork.
          [garbas]
        
        * created sphinx documentation and started documenting development and goals.
          [garbas]
        
        * hook out github repository to http://readthedocs.org service so sphinx
          documentation is generated on each commit (for master). Documentation can be
          visible on: http://readthedocs.org/docs/icalendar/en/latest/
          [garbas]
        
        
        2.1 (2009-12-14)
        ----------------
        
        * Fix deprecation warnings about ``object.__init__`` taking no parameters.
        
        * Set the VALUE parameter correctly for date values.
        
        * Long binary data would be base64 encoded with newlines, which made the
          iCalendar files incorrect. (This still needs testing).
        
        * Correctly handle content lines which include newlines.
        
        
        2.0.1 (2008-07-11)
        ------------------
        
        * Made the tests run under Python 2.5+
        
        * Renamed the UTC class to Utc, so it would not clash with the UTC object,
          since that rendered the UTC object unpicklable.  
        
        
        2.0 (2008-07-11)
        ----------------
        
        * EXDATE and RDATE now returns a vDDDLists object, which contains a list
          of vDDDTypes objects. This is do that EXDATE and RDATE can contain
          lists of dates, as per RFC.
          
          ***Note!***: This change is incompatible with earlier behavior, so if you
          handle EXDATE and RDATE you will need to update your code.
        
        * When createing a vDuration of -5 hours (which in itself is nonsensical),
          the ical output of that was -P1DT19H, which is correct, but ugly. Now
          it's '-PT5H', which is prettier.
        
        
        1.2 (2006-11-25)
        ----------------
        
        * Fixed a string index out of range error in the new folding code.
        
        
        1.1 (2006-11-23)
        ----------------
        
        * Fixed a bug in caselessdicts popitem. (thanks to Michael Smith
          <msmith@fluendo.com>)
        
        * The RFC 2445 was a bit unclear on how to handle line folding when it
          happened to be in the middle of a UTF-8 character. This has been clarified
          in the following discussion: http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/ietf-calsify/2006-August/001126.html
          And this is now implemented in iCalendar. It will not fold in the middle of
          a UTF-8 character, but may fold in the middle of a UTF-8 composing character
          sequence.
        
        
        1.0 (2006-08-03)
        ----------------
        
        * make get_inline and set_inline support non ascii codes.
        
        * Added support for creating a python egg distribution.
        
        
        0.11 (2005-11-08)
        -----------------
        
        * Changed component .from_string to use types_factory instead of hardcoding
          entries to 'inline'
        
        * Changed UTC tzinfo to a singleton so the same one is used everywhere
        
        * Made the parser more strict by using regular expressions for key name,
          param name and quoted/unquoted safe char as per the RFC
        
        * Added some tests from the schooltool icalendar parser for better coverage
        
        * Be more forgiving on the regex for folding lines
        
        * Allow for multiple top-level components on .from_string
        
        * Fix vWeekdays, wasn't accepting relative param (eg: -3SA vs -SA)
        
        * vDDDTypes didn't accept negative period (eg: -P30M)
        
        * 'N' is also acceptable as newline on content lines, per RFC
        
        
        0.10 (2005-04-28)
        -----------------
        
        * moved code to codespeak.net subversion.
        
        * reorganized package structure so that source code is under 'src' directory.
          Non-package files remain in distribution root.
        
        * redid doc/.py files as doc/.txt, using more modern doctest. Before they
          were .py files with big docstrings.
        
        * added test.py testrunner, and tests/test_icalendar.py that picks up all
          doctests in source code and doc directory, and runs them, when typing::
        
            python2.3 test.py
        
        * renamed iCalendar to lower case package name, lowercased, de-pluralized and
          shorted module names, which are mostly implementation detail.
        
        * changed tests so they generate .ics files in a temp directory, not in the structure itself.
