My suggestion: 
Anybody who has the free time can implement this, we can even keep the
code in the same dev tree. But we'll keep it modular and optional, just
like the extended features in PHPLIB. i.e. the user will need to do an
explicit require("calendar.inc")...

However, we have to stay on focus and get this baby ready for 1.0 by
end-September. As it is, we'll have our hands full with the impending
0.6 FT release and 0.7 Auth release.
