Subject: Net::ICal does not follow the RFC for TEXT fields.
According to the RFC sections 4.3.11 TEXT, some characters must be escaped. A colon (:), simi-colon (;) and a comma (,) must be escaped with a backslash (\). I am working around this by escaping these characters in my code. I will look at working up a patch in the future. I am working with Net::ICal 1.72 Keith

Any patch? Could you at least give some sample code to reproduce the issue? -- Olivier Mengué - http://perlresume.org/DOLMEN
