Thunderbird/Lightning and RTM?

Running Thunderbird 9.0.1
Lightning 1.1.1
Hey y'all,
Trying to set RTM up as a task list provider for an office full of people.
I've installed the latest Lightning add-on for Thunderbird, and I go in and add the calendar based on webcal://www.rememberthemilk.com/icalendar//
I can now see the tasks that I currently have listed on the RTM website. The problem is that when I go to add a task/update a task nothing happens. This will lock up Thunderbird forcing the user to "End Process" within task manager.
Checking the error console:
Error: XML tag name mismatch (expected hr)

Hi bob.morin and dm.hoyt,
The iCalendar feeds for your task lists are one-way feeds. When you update a task in Remember The Milk, this change will be reflected in the iCalendar feed and you'll be able to see the change on your calendar. However, you won't be able to edit the events and make changes from within Thunderbird.
Are these tasks being edited in Thunderbird or in Remember The Milk?

so what should I do to get a sync in both directions ???
Hi elyes.lamine,
Although it's distinct from the iCalendar feed, we offer 2 different ways to integrate your tasks with Google Calendar. Both of these methods allow you to make changes to your tasks from within Google Calendar. You can get more details here.
Apart from that, we don't currently offer 2-way calendar sync, sorry. If this is something you'd like to see in the future, you may want to vote for this in our Ideas forum here.
Thanks for your feedback.
