[ANN] ri_cal 0.8.5 Released

ri_cal version 0.8.5 has been released!

NOTE: Due to githubs migration to RackSpace this past weekend, and
the fact that github gem generation is temporarily disabled, the 0.8.5
gem is only available via rubyforge.

   The code repositories on github and rubyforge are in sync however,
so if you are using ri_cal by pulling from github that should work.

A new Ruby implementation of RFC2445 iCalendar.

The existing Ruby iCalendar libraries (e.g. icalendar, vpim) provide
for parsing and generating icalendar files,
but do not support important things like enumerating occurrences of
repeating events.

This is a clean-slate implementation of RFC2445.

A Google group for discussion of this library has been set up
http://groups.google.com/group/rical_gem

Changes:

### 0.8.5
  Fixes http://rick_denatale.lighthouseapp.com/projects/30941/tickets/26
    events with date parameters failing
### 0.8.4 - 18 September 2009
  Refactored load structure, should now be conforming to
        http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2009/9/1/gem-packaging-best-practices
    I did finesse the load path issue a bit as a workaround to RSpec
not putting lib on $LOADPATH
    the lib directory will get added to load path IF IT ISN"T ALREADY THERE

  Fixes http://rick_denatale.lighthouseapp.com/projects/30941/tickets/25
     please clean your code up to be quiet
