Changing the name of this implementation would still be the best choice due to package name collisions and other things. Out of curiosity: which namespace in gconf are you using for the settings (I am currently using /apps/CalendarFeed) and I should make sure that they don't collide.

Excellent 
. But I've had a look at your source code with regards to the power consumption guidelines.
I could see that you use a fair amount of QTimers and such. Maybe you could in those cases use the Harmattan system heartbeat to optimise power consumption instead?

1. Day change timer: Fires once a day at midnight to update labels
2. Reload event timer (if the calendar doesn't change this timer fires after the maximum look-ahead time and +- 12 hours)
3. Expiry timer (fires every time soon as the first event expires)
4. Calendar close timer (to prevent constant reloading of the calendar backend in case a lot of items are being edited - it is only activated if the calendar was previously changed)
Timer 1 & 2 should be negligible for power consumption. 3 & 4 could be more problematic but should not have a noticable impact on battery life. The issue with global timers is the interval in which they should be run and whether the daemon will not end up being the only process waking up the system in that case. I will look into adding that functionality in the next version. Thanks for letting me know.

Why you two chillip and dkormalev not merge in a single powerfull and customizable notifications feed app?!
I miss things, like Twitter mentions and DM's, and Facebook on my notifications.
This would be great.

I have added compatibility for PR 1.0. It will not be able to open recurring events (well it will open something but not the exact event you tapped on). Can you report back if it works for you now?
I'm still on PR 1.0.
Thanks for the good work on this - it's a valuable addition to the Notifications screen

Many thanks for this - I appreciate your work done. And I like your version over the one in the store since yours show separate events.
Now, one request though - would it be possible to have it pull events for more than 1 week ahead?

- Use gconftool-2 --all-dirs /apps/CalendarFeed/calendars to list the UIDs of all calendars (default refers to the default settings for all calendars)
- Modify the look ahead value for the calendar you want to change - e.g.:
gconftool-2 -s --type=int/apps/CalendarFeed/calendars/default/lookAhead <time in seconds>

This would be great.
i.e. F/OSS + F/OSS OR closed/commercial + closed/commercial.
Would be tricky for them to collaborate otherwise...
*EDIT*
Noticed the title of the thread's wrong....
Name of the app's Calendar Feed, but in the title you've called it Organiser Feed.
