Ask HN for feedback: iCal Analyzer computes calendar stats (github.com/din0bot)

HN: I've recently started using iCal to manage my time. It's less about recording future events, and more about recording how I've spent my time.

Mostly I wanted to see whether I was putting in enough time on various projects. Hence, I wrote a python app that reads in iCal files and outputs per-calendar statistics to the console. These stats are the total hours spent on each calendar, as well as the minimum and maximum length events within each calendar.

It's a very simple app, but with room to grow if that eventually seems useful.

Feedback welcome.

(ps - I couldn't get iCal->Publish to work, but I'm not unhappy with keeping all information local, either. pps - I've been playing with AppleScript lately, but I can't seem to find per-application AppleScript docs anywhere--am I crazy?)
