Rated 5 out of 5 stars

retraction: I'm an idiot It seems I had inadvertently grabbed my iCal link instead of my XML link when setting up Lightning and GCal. It works like a charm now. Fantastic!

A great idea that I was very excited about until I found it doesn't work with Portable. I get errors telling me I can't write to Google, then the task notification pop-up goes all wonky. It's nice that I can SEE my Gmail calendars, but it makes it all the more painful that I can't alter them when I know others (non-Portable) are!

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.3.1).

I just installed thunderbird portable from portableapps.com, installed lightning 0.7 and the provider 0.3.1. Everything works fine, adding events works like a charm.
