i only see a .ical attachment that a tool like outlook (thunderbird?) understands and translates automatically to your outlook calendar.  maybe gmail does the same with google calendar.

but i don't see the concrete tools that you are referring to for other forms of integration.  could you give a scenario ?  something like

1) jbpm sends .ical file as an email attachment to the user
2) user's outlook automatically recognizes the .ical attachment and creates a reminder in the calendar for it and a task in the outlook task list
3) user marks task in outlook as completed.
4) outlook sends task completion response back to reply-address of .ical file
5) upon receipt of that mail notification, the jbpm-reply-email-processor completes the task in the jbpm task component.

of course, this is fictious, but it's in that kind of scenarios that i would like to understand what integrations that you have build.

also i would like to understand which concrete tools that we can integrate that way.  the more widespread those tools, the more interesting, of course.
