1) Adding ical feeds from ActiveCollab to GoogleCalendar is flaky. Sometimes it does not work, then sometimes it does work. No rhyme or reason.
2) Public Google Calendars do not display milestones that start and end at the same time. Active Collab therefore needs milestones containing hours and minutes in addition to months, days and years, or it is not possible to publish milestones that last for less than one day (i.e. events).
3) The ical feeds in Google Calendar run from a web cache that gets created when you susbcribe to the feed. There is no obvious way to refresh the cache (complete rubbish): http://www.rememberthemilk.com/forums/help/806/ and no clear sign that Google are implementing a fix.

A number of people will want to create public calendars from their ActiveCollab projects. Suggest a better solution to this problem would be for ActiveCollab to provide public calendar hosting as a native function.

Cannot explain why this is the case but it is. Apologies if someone else has solved this already - IGNORE THIS.

Apps that we'll cover with our tests are Outlook, iCal and Google Calendar. That should do the trick, but if I missed an important calendar app that needs to be included in test please let me know.

I've looked through the threads that address Google Calendar feeds, but I can't find a solution. I've gone through the steps to add the icalendar feed as a URL. The feed shows in my sidebar under Other Calendars. However, no milestones are visible.

Additionally, I've tried to upload a saved version of the feed and it says that ZERO events have been added.

Any ideas as to why Google is not recognizing the milestones?
