== A Warning About iCal's Alarms ==
This wiki was written primarily to help the new "[[reminder monkey]]" of [[Writing Workshop]] learn how to send automated shift reminders using iCal, a system developed by [[Jonathan Landsman]] in [[Fall 2004]].
During his implementation of the system for that school year, one important problem was discovered: for reasons that were never determined, iCal would occassionally cease to send its periodic reminders, with no warning whatsoever. The issue would usually take a few weeks of normal function to arise, but when it came, it seemed to have no reason to it.
