Note that traditionally, "memo" (aka plain text) support was done by converting
between plain text and VJOURNAL (see EvolutionCalendarSource and its derived
class). A better solution is to let Synthesis do the conversion:
- use the existing iCalendar 2.0 as local datatype
- define a plain text format that uses the calendar field list
- use that as remote type exclusively or in combination with iCalendar 2.0
The advantage is that automatic type negotiation will work (plain text with
dumb peers, VJOURNAL with SyncEvolution).
We are not actually going to use this for syncing, but already
importing/exporting as VJOURNAL will be more useful.
I'm afraid I can't explain how to do this better, short of writing the code. If
you don't know what I mean, start with using VJOURNAL/iCalendar 2.0 and I can
add the rest.
