  @brief
  iCalendar format implementation.
 
  This class implements the iCalendar format. It provides methods for
  loading/saving/converting iCalendar format data into the internal
  representation as Calendar and Incidences.
 
  @warning When importing/loading to a Calendar, there is only duplicate
  check if those Incidences are loaded into the Calendar. If they are not
  loaded it will create duplicates.
