Just a quick 'bump' to see if there is any more info about this functionality.

Jos Yule marked one of Aitese's replies in I want Sandy as useful. Aitese replied to the question "Change the reminder time with an email". Jos Yule and 2 other people think it's one of the best replies.

I was just thinking that i needed a way to have a repeating event on the 3rd Thursday of each month, and couldn't figure out a way to do that in sandy.

If you could automatically tag items that come in via the feed, so that you could have them pre-sorted. Ie. i subscribe to a google calendar of my local park activities, i could have them tagged @park or @local or some such.

Even without this, it would be a great feature.

Jos Yule replied on February 14, 2008 16:14 to the question "Who owns the data that Sandy is managing?" in I want Sandy:

Well, you can export via RSS or iCal right now. So if your other tool supports those formats you are in luck. I'm sure that there would be some data loss tho - i don't know how much context is exported in the RSS feed. Until such a time as they create an export function, those are the only two (easy/quick) ways i see of getting your data out. Keep in mind that this is just my two cents, and i could be totally of my rocker. YMMV, etc etc...

That other thread is excellent, thanks for pointing it out. Looking forward to trying out whatever you come up with!

Jos Yule replied on February 14, 2008 16:06 to the idea "iCal subscriptions per tag/search/whatever" in I want Sandy:

Ahh, that's excellent. I would add somekind of link directly to an RSS/iCal feed with the URL already created, so you don't have to manually mess with the URL. But the functionality is good.

As you say, having some kind of "private" key, so that you can give the URL away, without having to give away your password would be a great next step.

One gotcha is that in Lightning (thunderbird's calendar plugin), the ical feed dosen't seem to have the reminder set - in fact, looking at the .ics file, i don't see the reminder either. Is it published to the ics?

Thanks!

iCal subscriptions per tag/search/whatever

Rather then making my all my todo's available, i'd like to "share" my @family tagged items with the rest of the family. They could subscribe to my "private" @family url, which would then only publish items which i've tagged with @family. Each tag or search could have its own iCal url.

What i'm really looking for is some way share a sub-set of my items with others.

Bahahaha, oh my, it just gets worse!

"Remind me [date/time] to do [thing] by [date/time]"

Jos Yule replied on February 13, 2008 20:04 to the idea "I would like "Remind me to do X by " syntax :)" in I want Sandy:

gaaa - the formatting got messed up - the <date> should have been <date-time>. Stupid auto formatting</date-time></date>

Jos Yule replied on February 13, 2008 20:03 to the idea "I would like "Remind me to do X by " syntax :)" in I want Sandy:

I like JRK's format of

"Remind me <date /> to do <thing> by <date />"

Excellent!
