Is it possible to set up a group calendar in DCS that contains calendars from Basecamp?
Hi, My company has around 30 projects in Basecamp. We are using Calendar Server as our company calendar server so that we can collaboratively edit our calendars. We would like to subscribe to each of our Basecamp projects (separately not the global feed) so that we can do one-to-one comparisons, color each project differently, etc. We don't want each of our workers to have to manually subscribe to each of our 30 calendars in their own calendar clients. Is there a way to create a calendar group in Calendar Server, add each worker as a member, and subscribe the group to each of our Basecamp projects? That way the Calendar Server could serve up all of the calendars. Is this possible? Thanks, Michelle
Michelle, If you happen to figure out a solution, would you mind posting it to the list? There are quite a few people here (myself included) with unanswered questions that I'm sure would be very appreciative of a write-up on how to solve group related issues.

Hi Terry, I didn't find a DCS related solution to this problem and since I don't have an infinite amount of time to devote to this particular problem, my proposed solution was: * Write up a ruby script to grab all of the project IDs via Basecamp's API and put them into an applescript-formated array * Write up an applescript script to automate subscription to the Basecamp milestone calendars Then we manually create iCal group(s) for the Basecamp subscriptions so that we can turn all the projects on and off with one click. This cuts down iCal subscription time from 15-30min (manually subscribing to 30 projects) to ~2min. As for group-related stuff, the most complicated that we've gotten is setting up 2 calendar groups with 4-6 calendars and 4 members each. So our set up probably won't be that helpful to other people. Let me know if you're interested in seeing our simple little scripts and I'll post them. Cheers, Michelle Terry Barnum wrote:
