    /**
	 * Common  utility routines to manipulate iCalendar components and fields in
	 * an EGroupware context.
	 * 
	 * @section eicnv_synopsis Synopsis
	 * To illustrate just a few of the many conversion routines in this library, lets take
	 * as example a piece from a task to VTODO conversion routine. In this
	 * piece of code the 'info_responsible' field from an Egw task element is
	 * used to set the ATTENDEE field of a newly constructed VTODO element.
	 *
	 * First setup the basic objects we need: we create an egw resource, read
	 * a task from it, create a vtodo object and create a conversion
	 * library object (because not all the conversion routines can yet be called
	 * as class methods):
@verbatim
  $binf =& CreateObject('infolog.boinfolog');        
  $task = $binf->read(1233);
  ....
  $vtodo = Horde_iCalendar::newComponent('VTODO',....);
  ...
  $eicnv =& CreateObject('icalsrv.eicnvutils');
@endverbatim

  Now we use three routines from our class to fill the ATTENDEE attribute
  of <code>$vtodo</code> with info for the first responsible person
  we found in the  task in <code>$task</code>. 

@verbatim
 $actor1_id  = $task['info_responsible'][0];

 $propval    = $eicnv->mki_v_CAL_ADDRESS($actor1_id);
 $propparams = $eicnv->mki_p_CN($actor1_id);

 $eicnv->updi_c_addAttribute($vtodo,'ATTENDEE',$propval,$propparams);
@endverbatim
     * It is done by reading the first person identifier from the info_responsible field
	 * of the task and then using this id to get an email address as vtodo property value
	 * (by use of the method <code>mki_v_CAL_ADDRESS()</code>) and a full Calendar Name as
	 * vtodo parameter (by use of the method <code>mki_p_CN()</code>). Finally the property value
	 * and the property parameters are added to the new vtodo element by use of the
	 * <code>updi_c_addAttribute()</code> routine. 
	 * 
	 * As a result of this code you might find in the printed variant of
	 * <code>$vtodo</code> a line added like:
@verbatim
BEGIN:VTODO
...
ATTENDEE;CN=Paul Demoman:MAILTO:paul@demoland.org
...
END:VTODO
@endverbatim
	 *
	 *
	 * @section secwkcapimethodnames Conversion Routines API  method names
	 * Developers of Concrete subclasses of icalsrv_resourcehandler: that is classes that
	 * will handle the transport of
	 * a specific type of Vcal Element (like <code>VEVENT</code>s) to specific Egw Elements
	 * (like e.g. calendar	<code>event</code>s), can profitably use the set auxiliary conversion
	 * methods that the eicnvutils provides.
	 * This class should be used as a kind of (read only) library: no state is needed. The members
	 * of this class are only used as constants.
	 * So one instance should do for multiple worker objects that used it. No need to duplicate it.
	 *
	 * Most of the utility methods that are provideda follow a generic naming scheme based on their
	 * functionality. The generic prefixes are:
	 * <ul>
	 * <li>For Vcalendar Element Building Routines: <code>mki_</code><br/>
	 *  This is for methods that MaKe a Ical thing like a component, field, fieldvalue or
	 *    fieldparameter. Thus these are subdived in:</li>
	 *  <ul>
	 *   <li><code>mki_c</code> to make ical Components like VEVENTS or VALARMS </li>
	 *   <li><code>mki_v</code> to make ical field Values like e.g. a ATTENDEE field value</li>
	 *   <li><code>mki_vp</code> to make both ical field Values and Parameters </li>
	 *  </ul>
	 * </li>
	 * <li>For Egw Element Building Routines: <code>mke_</code><br/>
	 *  This is for methods that MaKe a Egw things like a field of egw event or task.</li>
	 * <li>For Vcalendar Element Updating Routines:<code>updi_</code><br/>
	 *  This is for methods that UPDate an Ical component or field. Note that the Ical component
	 *  to be updated will be passed by reference to these routines</li>
	 * <li>For Egw Element Updating Routines:<code>upde_</code><br/>
	 *  This is for methods that UPDate an Egw entity like an event or task or.... Note again
	 *  that the Egw entity will be passed by reference to these routines.</li>
	 * </ul>
	 *
	 * @note many of the conversion methods can be called as class methods, i.e. without
	 * the need for an instance of this class. Some though use data in the instance variables
	 * (like conversion tables) that need to be initializes by the constructor. In the
	 * the functions callable as class method (i.e. as <code>eicnvutils::method_x(...)</code>)
	 * are labeled as such.
	 * You dont need more than a singleton of the class  icalsrv.eicnvutils though, as it carries
	 * no state. 
	 *
	 * @section secrfc Background literature for ICalendar conversions
	 * When you start using the iCalendar format the infamous RFC 2445 is indispensible
	 * You can access if for example via @url http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2445.html that has
	 * also a pdf version.  Or via @url http://rfc-ref.org/RFC-TEXTS/2445/index.html
	 * that is indexed with online links to the various sections.
	 * In future I hope to annotate the conversion methods in this class with references
	 * to the appropiate sections of the rfc.
	 *
	 * @section sectimezones TimeZone handling
	 *  Currently vtimezones are completely ignored when found in an
	 * ical file that is to be imported. All times that are not in utc format (end with Z)
	 * will be interpreted as set in the timezone of the logged in user (UI times).
	 * From this on the bocalendar and boinfolog classes will do the proper conversion to
	 * server times.
	 * On export (all|most) date-time values produced will be in utc format.
	 * Date values on the contrary (as for 
	 * whole day events etc) will be in UI time of the logged in user, thus in a likewise
	 * manner as on import.  The logic here is that wholeday events are to respect daylight
	 * and not exact time. There will be no VTIMEZONE written in the exported icalendar.
	 * For more info on this see @ref pageicalsrvtzh
	 *
