<p>Google offers some HTML snippets to embed your public Google Calendar into your website. These are great, but as soon as you want to make a few adjustments to the styling, that goes beyond changing some colors, they’re useless. Because of that I wrote a very simple widget, that fetches events from a public google calendar and nicely displays them in form of a widget, allowing you to apply all kinds of CSS. The source code should be quite easy to modify.</p>
<h3>License</h3>
<p>The plugin is published under the GPL v3. Previous versions (<= 0.2) did not<br />
mention a license; this has been fixed in the latest trunk and will be<br />
included in the next release version.</p>
