SkypeCalSync

Posted over at Skype Forum (I was bored!)

I would like to get a calendar in Skype, so that I can schedule calls with other people. E.g. a call conference.
If I added my own mobile number to the conference then I could be on the road and still manage to 'attend' the call.

I suppose I could use the API and Google Calendar for this, but then features like:
- See all my contacted people for a particular day.
- Easily set up events through IM
- distribute files to attendees automatically (see another suggestion)
- Set reminders for me to call my father/mother on their birthday
- Set time delimited features, like call forward at particular times
...would be so much more difficult.

At the current innovation rate at Skype, I estimate this would take about 6 years to implement!

...and...

I'd like to be able to attach files to a user in my contact list (a link to a file or a folder).
Skype would then keep this file in sync in my contact's Skype, by synchronising every time we are both online. Ideally this would be bi-directional, but as that's quite hard, I would settle for master-slave only (I'd rather have something in my lifetime, thanks)

If I could attach the file/folder to a contact group, that would be even better.

This would stop me having to send the same file multiple times, whenever a small change is made (and would definitely be a big improvement over email!)
