I just mentionned this one because french people like me often use
single quotes - but that's not that important (sure).

Oops, i forgot that - sorry.

This *is* cool! Except that i've found to many stuck projects...

I think DL/S is clear enough. Maybe another way to implement the
distinction between deadlines and scheduled events is to use VEVENT
and VTODO? http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2445 shows a typical VTODO:
BEGIN:VTODO
UID:address@hidden
DTSTAMP:19970901T1300Z
DTSTART:19970415T133000Z
DUE:19970416T045959Z
SUMMARY:1996 Income Tax Preparation
CLASS:CONFIDENTIAL
CATEGORIES:FAMILY,FINANCE
PRIORITY:1
STATUS:NEEDS-ACTION
END:VTODO
This introduce the DUE: and STATUS: elements. I'm not sure about this
because it would make a strong difference between ical-scheduled and
ical-"deadlined" items (iCal would display them differently), and this
distinction is more flexible in org-mode. Just to let you know in
case.

AFAIK, SUMMARY is not very suitable for storing URLs. You might add a
URL=http://... element, but you need to strip all emacs-relevant links
(like gnus: bbdb: vm: etc.).
By the way, if seen the combined ics output insert something like
(category ...) - why not using the CATEGORY: element?

While trying to publish all projects from my ~/org/ directory, I
discovered that org-publish uses timestamps.
`org-publish-use-timestamps-flag' let us turn this off/on, but i'd
like to be able to bypass this flag manually and force re-publishing
of all files when needed (since timestamps might not be accurate).

Yes, i'll do that. While playing with custom commands, i found that
tags-todo commands are wrongly associated with ??? Here is a patch.

All right! Thanks.
