I don't know whether icons go into the logo category though.

might be a good thing to make, I'll try to find the right place to suggest it. --Kryptknight 18:25, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Other iCal capable clients?

Might it be a good idea to include a section detailing other iCal/vCal capable clients such as Mozilla Calendar, Mozilla Sunbird and Microsoft Outlook? I have an iCal subscription link for the calendar on my site, but there doesn't seem to be a central location to which I can point my users for information on how to use the link. Mac users mostly know what iCal is, but Windows users don't often know their options for calendar subscription software.

I suppose I could write such a section myself, but I know very little about the available clients and their advantages and disadvantages.
