Subject: Google Calendar in Gnome 3
Keywords:
Calendar, Gnome3
Posted by: Sean Reifschneider
Several of us have been running Gnome 3 lately, and have been happy
enough with it. One thing I was thinking was that it would be nice if the
date/time bar app showed my google calendar. Then Mike found this project
that does just that: gnome-shell-google-calendar.
But, I subscribe to 8 other calendars. So whenever we had a company
meeting, it would show a bunch of duplicated events, and it was hard to
tell my events from others. So I hacked on it this weekend and have pushed
a new version up to github: Sean's
fork of gnome-shell-google-calendar.
This version de-duplicates events with the same title that start at
the same time, and also displays what calendar the event came from. So far
it's been working really well for me, but the upstream author is reporting
an error so I'm working with them on that at the moment.

Patrick de Perio Subject: Time Zone Support |
Dear Sean,
Thank you very much for this! It looks very nice. Except when I add a calendar with a different time zone, it displays the time in that time zone and not in my current system time zone. Is it possible to grab the "Calendar Time Zone" from the calendar settings and apply the shift?
Thank you

Whizbo Subject: event creation? |
jafo, I just made the jump to gnome3, as always it looks like you've made the jump first and have already started solving problems. It sounds like this is still a one way tool, no creating events. Have you found any ways around that?

Whizbo: We've only been using it as a one-way tool, so I haven't really looked at creating events here.
Patrick: It should be possible to do that, but I"m afraid that's not something I'll be able to work on. Check the upstream of my fork and see if anyone else has made those changes or possibly report it against upstream, that's likely to get more attention.
