Also, FYI, CalDAV employs the ‘iCalendar’ format, another open standard, which should not be confused with the term ‘iCal.’

Actually, the standard the applications like iCal support is called ‘CalDAV.’ The CalDAV standard is open and free, and becoming commonly used by many calendaring/scheduling programs. The ‘iCal’ name simply refers to Apple’s calendar program itself; there is really no such thing as an ‘iCal standard’ or ‘iCal format.’

iCal is open calendar standard format, Mac just made a program with the same name. There are lots of apps that use this format – even for Windows! It’s also used by Google Calendar
