Research direction

Review the “Using Thunderbird with Google Calendar” SUMO article and the linked “Creating New Calendars” article. Remove the Read only section from the former, move it to a new or existing article, and incorporate the provided iCal and authentication wording. Done means the read/write guidance applies correctly and the read-only instructions remain documented in the appropriate place.
