Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
We've been using iceowl for some time. We have quite a few calendars
configured.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Saw iceowl-extension was available, installed it, started it.
* What was the outcome of this action?
None of the calendars configured for iceowl was visible in iceowl-extension
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected that iceowl-extension would show the same list of calendars as
stand-alone iceowl, either sharing the config or, less interestingly, by
importing them at startup.
severity 655703 wishlist thanks Iceowl and iceowl-extension don't share any configuration data. I agree that at least a migration dialog would be nice though. Could you take this up with upstream on bugzilla.mozilla.org since this looks like a feature request and this would give you prompter feedback without having me in the middle.

I agree. Will do. Thanks.
This has been reported to upstream as bug 717911 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=717911
Hi. You may also see #655703 which deals with that very same issue. Hope this helps. Best regards,
I hadn't seen that, thanks. However, I consider it an iceowl issue rather than an iceowl-extension issue since a user may want to switch to some other stand alone calendar program rather than to iceowl-extension. In that case, he would need to export the iceowl calendars to a standard format so that it could be imported to the other program.
