Mike,

I have recently created a link from RT to a web calendar
http://www.k5n.us/webcalendar.php

It's a bit of a hack but it seems to work OK. Basically whenever a 
"Starts" or "Due" date is set in a ticket, it creates an entry in the 
calendar for that user. At the moment you have to have the same user 
names in webcal and RT. I have a global scip that fires of a perl script 
to create the calendar entries. Be warned the RT scrip is very rough, 
and the perl code even rougher !

I have just had a quick look at the code and it does actually remap one 
RT user to a different Webcal user. A real programmer may be able to use 
this as a basis for a real interface.
