+Import
+======
+
+Import data from an icalendar file.
+You will be asked to enter the file name from which to load ical
+items. At the end of the import process, and if the general option
+'system_dialogs' is set to 'yes', a report indicating how many items
+were imported is shown.
+This report contains the total number of lines read, the number of
+appointments, events and todo items which were successfully imported,
+together with the number of items for which problems occured and that
+were skipped, if any.
+
+If one or more items could not be imported, one has the possibility to
+read the import process report in order to identify which problems
+occured.
+In this report is shown one item per line, with the line in the input
+stream at which this item begins, together with the description of why
+the item could not be imported.
