Hi Matthew. Sorry I didn't respond earlier. I've been hopping around  
a bit.

I could use this. I don't consider it super-critical, but that might  
change if the tool were made available.

I would want it to respect visibility options. I use Disclose-Secret  
(http://bluesome.net/post/2006/01/01/121/) to restrict access.

Funny you should ask. See my thread with Alex, earlier. I would like  
to be able to use the Next/Prev buttons in single.php listings of  
individual events. I can't do so right now because they point to post- 
order entries, not event-order.

I also would like it if an event that has passed can have a class  
applied to it, so I could italicize it or something.

Thanks for all the work! I really, really appreciate the big  
calendar! My users love it too.

Chris
