cyrus, i notice that the TextCalendarTextFilter indexes all
of the
properties and parameters of all components in the calendar
object,
including the outermost vcalendar as well as any contained
timezones.
is that really what you meant to do?

seems to me that only the properties and parameters of the
actual
events need be indexed for report queries, but i might not
know what
i'm talking about ;)

The spec itself is not just limited to events - any iCal
item, no matter at 
what level or what type, can potentially be queried for. Of
course in 
reality how many clients will actually want to query the
PRODID or VERSION 
properties at the top-level. Chances are not many, but if
they were to, the 
server would have to do the query one way or another to be
compliant. If 
you wanted to reduce the size of the index you could just do
events - but 
then you would have to fall back to inspecting the actual
iCal data for 
queries on anything else.

BTW Just thinking about this: one thing you certainly do
want to do is not 
index the value of an ATTACH property which could be quite
large and will 
not contain anything worthy of a query (its usually base 64
encoded). I 
guess that's one I should have definitely left out.
