First, proposals for technical action, like = re-arranging or removing the calendar module, should happen on arch@, not here. = Please formulate a proposal and move the discuss to that forum. Second, there=E2=80=99s a vibe in parts of this thread that are = passive-aggressively disrespectful to Greg. I encourage those who might feel some personal frustration towards Greg to talk to him directly. The Core team can = help with that communication if needed. Otherwise, it=E2=80=99s not not = appropriate and not welcome on the mailing lists. If you don=E2=80=99t feel it=E2=80=99s = important enough to resolve in a professional manner, then please keep it to yourself. Thanks, Scott
