Before diving into any changes to how the calendar is defined and
maintained, I think it is vital to establish what is wanted from the
calendar, both from the maintenance point of view and the user PoV.

The existing calendar allows views by week, month and agenda (serial).
One can move back and forth in the listings easily, and they can be
downloaded and printed.
Individual entries can be copied to one's personal calendar.
Selecting an entry shows more information, with links to further details.
There are probably more functions I have not considered.

Are all these needed?
