Since the point of icaldir is that several different applications access 
the same icaldir the PRODID doesn't make much sense because the event 
files are not created by a single application (contrary to ics where 
the file is created by one application and probably overwritten by 
another, but still the complete file is each time written by only one 
app).

I don't know what VERSION means but if it's indicates the version of the 
iCalendar format that's used in the ics file then this information 
probably has to be duplicated in all event files because different apps 
might create event files with different versions of the iCalendar 
format.

Yes, this will result in a lot of duplication of VERSION strings. If 
anyway almost exclusively version 2.0 is used then this version can 
simply be used as default and the VERSION:2.0 can be omitted.
