Okay, a final report on this situation (hopefully)!

I've discovered that, unlike before, when I sync to iCal (after adding a new task to OF), instead of the task showing up in iCal immediately as it did under OF 1.0, I have to go to the next day/week/month (in other words, I have to change the iCal display in some way) and then the new task appears in iCal.

So, I apologize for this thread as the syncing does work, although differently than before. Perhaps this will enlighten others who run into the same behavior.
