No, it doesn't look like it.State ⇒ Feedback
Is this the same like described in the following thread? http://lists.horde.org/archives/kronolith/Week-of-Mon-20080428/006810.htmlNew Attachment: example.ics
Luckily, it still works for me. I set the extension to ".ics", but maybe it's supposed to be ".vcs". I'm not really sure. Anyway, here it is.State ⇒ Feedback
The link doesn't work for me anymore. Can you upload that file so that it doesn't get lost again?The iCalendar library can parse that file; one problem seems to be that it's huge, so it takes a while to do anything with it. I'm not sure how effectively we're caching, though, and it doesn't seem to give usable information for me either.State ⇒ Assigned

No, but the feed actually *is* a valid free/busy url, so it should work.
Even if it isn't the free/busy feed, wouldn't it still be possible to deduce the free/busy times from it?An example URL is http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/eric.standlee@gmail.com/public/basic as listed over at http://crusaderx.blogspot.com/2006/04/google-calendar-feature-share-freebusy.html. Adding him as an attendee yields no information.
Now that you mention it, I'm not sure if that's a free/busy feed or a full calendar feed. Which is it? I thought they were the same. It looks like that's all Google Calendar offers. Maybe they don't support free/busy feeds after all.

Can you please supply an example URL? And are you sure that it's a free/busy feed, not the full calendar feed? They're different things.Queue ⇒ Kronolith

If a user is added as an attendee to an event, and that user has a Google Calendar free/busy URL, http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/<e-mail-address>/public/basic, "No information" is all that comes up even though the non-iCal URL, http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=<e-mail-address>&ctz=America/Toronto, shows that the user is busy/not busy. So there is information. It's just not being read or processed.
