I don't... however, I have to admit that I don't really know that much
about .ics files and the use of UID. The setup at the moment just works
for me and the appointments I want show up in google calendar (only ones
with a start and end time). One issue I still have is that they only
show up in an extra calendar and I have to copy them by hand into my
main calendar (so that other people can see them too)... this is ok for
me, since I don't have too many entries that go from org->google, mostly
I use the other direction google->org.
So there is still lots of room for improvement ;)
Anyway, here is the relevant part from my .emacs file just in case
;;; org -> google export via .ics
(setq org-icalendar-use-UTC-date-time nil)
(setq org-icalendar-timezone "America/Los_Angeles")
(defun org-mycal-export-limit ()
"Limit the export to items that have a date, time and a range. Also
exclude certain categories."
(setq org-tst-regexp "<\\([0-9]\\{4\\}-[0-9]\\{2\\}-[0-9]\\{2\\} ...
[0-9]\\{2\\}:[0-9]\\{2\\}[^\r\n>]*?\\)>")
(setq org-tstr-regexp (concat org-tst-regexp "--?-?" org-tst-regexp))
(save-excursion
; get categories
(setq mycategory (org-get-category))
; get start and end of tree
(org-back-to-heading t)
(setq mystart (point))
(org-end-of-subtree)
(setq myend (point))
(goto-char mystart)
; search for timerange
(setq myresult (re-search-forward org-tstr-regexp myend t))
; search for categories to exclude
(setq mycatp (member mycategory org-export-exclude-category))
; return t if ok, nil when not ok
(if (and myresult (not mycatp)) t nil)))
(defun org-mycal-export ()
(let ((org-icalendar-verify-function 'org-mycal-export-limit))
(org-export-icalendar-combine-agenda-files)))
and I export via a cron script doing
emacs --batch -l ~/.emacs --eval '(defun ask-user-about-lock (file opp)
nil)' -f org-mycal-export
cheers
