[uf-discuss] UID in iCalendar

[Marko Mrdjenovic]

I think that the last option needs to change - even if there is no way 
to determine a UID I would like to be able to import it into the less 
friendly clients. If no UID is specified and UID is required the 
converter should provide one - obviously the author had no wish for 
people to be able to update the event...
