Release Notes
- Parsing all iCalendar files should be working, please file a bug if you can't read one!
- Timezones can be set for datetimes, but currently they'll be converted to UTC for serializing, because VTIMEZONE serialization isn't yet working.

- To parse unicode, see issue 4.
- Much more testing is needed, of course!
