If you want and have the time, you can discuss it there at akademy
since most folks are there anyway. Otherwise we probably would have to
discuss this at the next pim sprint in a few months. I hope the
components are done before that though :) at least the reading part,
updating/deleting/adding events is a whole different beast to tackle.

It's easier for me as well if it stays in one place and stays there :)

Actually.. i don't mind those sets to be "KDE 5" material. It can't be
used for any KDE 4.x series anymore since the workspace is on lockdown
after 4.11 thus those components can't even be used to recreate the
calendar popup for 4.11 or 4.12..
