True, and that argument alone lets me lean very much towards the
KCalendar stuff. I think i'm just going to follow you on this and go
for KCalendar and friends. It can't be that hard to port it to
QCalendar and friends once that is released. I could also make an
abstraction to make it to toggle between KCalendar and QCalendar
although the later one would be a stub implementation at this moment.
That does make it very easy to switch to a different API in the
future.
