Issue

Connecting to the SuiteCRM iCal integration URL as given in profile->advanced settings tab declares the calendar as a SugarCRM instance:
modules/iCals/iCal.php:514:
$ical_array[] = array("X-WR-CALNAME", "$cal_name (SugarCRM)");
$ical_array[] = array("PRODID", "-//SugarCRM//SugarCRM Calendar//EN");

Expected Behavior

If anyone is serious about branding, shouldn't this be:
$ical_array[] = array("X-WR-CALNAME", "$cal_name (SuiteCRM)"); instead?
...and change the following line to be:
$ical_array[] = array("PRODID", "-//SuiteCRM//SuiteCRM Calendar//EN");

Actual Behavior

Possible Fix

Legacy code - just change the identity to SuiteCRM

Steps to Reproduce

Create an iCAL subscription to pretty much any 3rd party client
By default it's identified as a SugarCRM instance

Context

Low priority/simple fix from a usability point of view. Critical and unforgivable capital punishment issue from a branding perspective ;)

Your Environment

SuiteCRM Version used:
7.10.27, and 7.11.15 in same file but slightly different lines
Browser name and version (e.g. Chrome Version 51.0.2704.63 (64-bit)):
