Yeah. It is one of my dark spots on my conscience. I wrote it, and still 
have a small itch to make a few changes.

I just haven't worked with calendars for the last few years, so it 
always seem to get bumped to the end of the todo list.

It would be a good idea to either give access to more people or to move 
it to a somewhat more open environment, so that there could be more 
maintainers.

Maintaining the code is more motivating when you actually use it :-s
