expected iCalendar output

Here is the expected iCalendar output. Note that properties may appear in a different order inside the BEGIN:VEVENT END:VEVENT block, and optional "X-" properties, implementation specific "PRODID" property, and "CHARSET" parameter have been omitted (and thus implementation may include those and still pass this test):
