Calendar Holidays

I was surprised to see no one had asked about holidays already. Being that the SF calendar is the central place for information on meetings, vacation, etc., it seemed fitting that holiday information should also be there. However, there is no way I have found to auto insert all US federal holidays + Judeo-Christian Holidays...

Anyone know of a macro to do this via the excel import tool or the API?

Would others find it useful if we built one that was extensible to include multiple tracks of holidays (Islamic Calendar, Jewish Calendar, Country Specific, etc.)?

Thanks.

It would be interesting to write a tool that converted iCal/vCalendar subscriptions to the salesforce Calendar, as there are already so many sources available..

..one could use the JSP sample to create web page that did this, and I'm sure all of us would find it useful..

Hi there,
check out my post link
http://community.salesforce.com/sforce/board/message?board.id=JAVA_development&message.id=4655
which has some code you might find useful.
as an aside - there is a site online that does a hebrew calendar date (as in all jewish holidays etc) integration with microsoft outlook. i've downloaded it, and then synced it wih my google calendar. I've yet to figure out how to mas sync the dates to my SF calendar, if you do know, please advise!
thank you!
