Am I wrong when I think that an http: ical is static (once added to my outlook, for example), whereas a webcal: ical is dynamic? why not allow webcal icals since they are more widely supported (unless I am wrong).

Does a webcal update by periodically pinging my server and getting a cashed feed (updated on cron), or querying the database (i.e. no cron necessary)? It would stink if I have 10000 webcal users and my site gets hit every hour or whatever, but I only have like 30 users max.

Thanks

webcal:// is the URI It is a way of transporting ical files, not necessarily a different file format type.
