Hi,
can anyone suggest a good calendar prog for use with xfce, so no gnome or kde dependencies.
I quite like lightning and sunbird, but it's for my laptop and i won't always have internet connectivity. I would really like something which lets me make changes off-line and then when I'm on-line it can send the changes to the server.

I also need a client which supports reading and writing an ics file off an ftp server; this is the setup I'm currently using.

Any recommendations?

Orage is XFCE4's calendar.

Pretty lightweight, but might serve your needs.

THanks for the suggestion. It hasn't solved my problem of sharing the calendar between multiple PC's - allowing me to write entries while offline and then synchronise them when online, but orage is a nice solution because it integrates with the xfce taskbar and hence the reminders should pop up, even if I don't have firefox open. It also works with ics files so I can add entries in thunderbird and use orage for the reminders.

To solve the issue of synchronisation I decided to use my subversion repository for storing the calendar file.
