icalx has powered by phpicalendar 0.9 on their demo calendar, which  
links to the project website.  I get the sense that the proprietor  
has just been making this a free service on the side, and so I'm not  
troubled by icalx.com.  I do wish he'd take a look at the newer  
versions!

I can't tell about the other one.

My overall philosophy is that I put the effort into phpicalendar  
because it's really useful to me, and if anyone else uses it, that's  
OK as long as they don't pass it off as their own work.  I hope that  
those who find it useful will come back and share what they've  
learned about phpicalendar with us and with new users, but if they  
don't, there's not much we can do.

One of the interesting things about icalx is that by being free (I  
assume there's some small income from the ads) it prevents anyone  
else from making an expensive service based on our project.  Now that  
Google is entering the calendar business, it will be interesting to  
see what happens.

It seems that Google calendar provides .ics files, but they don't  
link cleanly as webcals via phpicalendar.

PHPiCalendar is under the GPL, so as long as anyone follows that  
license they're good.

I would guess your comment about Google doing a mix of PHPiCalendar  
and Outlook invitations is the obvious choice, as it makes Google  
Calendar compatible with everything. All non-Outlook calendaring  
solutions (including Lotus Notes and Apple Mail/Calendar) use the  
iCalendar spec. In typical Microsoft fashion, Outlook uses its own  
proprietary non-compatible invitation system, IIRC. I think you need  
to link into their MAPI service or something to use it. But I'm not  
very familiar with Outlook's and Exchange's internals so I could be  
mostly wrong about this.
