Just inherit from the View model and override the view method.

class ICalDownload(View):
    def get(self, *args, **kwargs):
        # return your response just like you would in a function view.

If you want to protect the view, I like to use django-braces. Otherwise, you need to use method_decorator on the dispatch method:

@method_decorator(auth_required)
def dispatch(self, *args, **kwargs):
    return super(ICalDownload, self).dispatch(*args, **kwargs)

At this point, a function based view might be a little simpler, but like you, I like to always use class based views.
