Synchronization with Google Calendar

General description of the system and its operation

If one has an account with the Google Calendar service, one may synchronize the data of his calendar with the CIFKM calendar.

This CIFKM function facilitates the unification of calendars, so that one always has the same notices in both calendars, wich allows to administrate it from any mobile device (ipad, iphone, blackberry, android, etc..) wich may view and administrate Google Calendar.

From the moment this functionality is activated, each time one modifies or eliminates a notice in CIFKM, these changes will be passed on to the Google calendar.
