So far: <br>
<br>
To create the .ical file suggestions led to mainly creating a
Network calendar in TB which pointed to a local file. The other
option is to export the file. Trying to point orage to the web link
.ical with google error-ed with:<br>
<br>
** (orage:6585): WARNING **: Can not do import without dbus. import
failed file=[link]<br>
<br>
neither private nor public worked.<br>
<br>
<a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=806472" target="_blank">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=806472</a> this link, though
old, gave some good insight to the inner working which culminated
into several observations and insights.<br>
<br>
1. Despite a demand for integration for any calendar solution which
integrates within Ubuntu none seems to be forth coming. I have not
looked to see if anything addresses this in the upcoming 14.04
release.<br>
<br>
2. Though xfce used to integrate with gnome applets; due to changes
in gnome this no longer applies and the one fix their was in the
package "evolution-mirror" no longer works, available at
<a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/evolution-mirror/" target="_blank">https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/evolution-mirror/</a>
. My note taking leaves a lot to desire so I apologize as I get
used to this lack of specific details. Most of what I found was
from 2012 and before when evolution was still the email client and
integrated with gnome clock there-by allowing the noted work arounds
which were found.<br>
<br>
3. Using Orage was a popular solution to some degree but did not
result in a bi-directional integration. As I mentioned before the
solution pointed to an .ical file which was either created as a
network calendar pointing to a local file or an exported file.<br>
<br>
4. Most of what I read felt that a rewrite of the gnome clock API to
integrate with more than the evolution-data-server is the best
solution as it doesn't re-invent the wheel; just puts new rims on
'em. <br>
<br>
Again the solutions being offered required the installation of
either evolution or sunbird to work. Neither of which I felt was an
option as it defeated the purpose of not bloating the system and
installing a program just to act as go between two other programs
seemed counter intuitive. <br>
<br>
If I knew how to code I would look to help in this capacity by
writing my own applet, either for google calendar or the
aforementioned API clock.<br>
<br>
I am still on the hunt for a solution because other systems
integrate too readily for the community to ignore. Thank you Bruno
for your suggestion and I feel it will work for anyone who keeps a
local calendar but as mentioned mine syncs across devices.<br>
<br>
Awaiting any corrections or advice, thanks.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
