But I could be wrong. Ted Leung's been working on it for a while ([link\|http://www.sauria.com/blog\|http://www.sauria.com/blog]) A recent comment which makes me continue to think so: As far as Chandler goes, we have a UI spec for the Calendar work we are doing for our 0.5 release (sometime in March). I'm not intimately involved with the calendaring stuff, so reading the spec is the best way to judge whether there will be something new for users there.

I assume you're aware of the plans for [link\|http://wiki.mozilla.org/index.php/Calendar:Lightning\|Lightning] from Mozilla. Any PIM for me would have to work with my Palm OS device (Sony Clie). I trust they've looked at DateBk5. I assume that as LCD displays get cheaper that even more portable PCs with more capabilities are coming. People are going to want to carry their calendars with them - I think that means PalmOS and/or WinCE support is needed in the fairly near term. It might be a great improvement for large organizations, but I wonder if they're showing up too late at the table. What's appealing about it for you? Let us know how it goes! Cheers, Scott.
