I made a big long writeup on the xul/chandler prototypes.  I didn't
emphasize this but I should: these demos are VERY deceptive -- they
don't behave right at all, the calendar isn't even hooked up to the
repository, and they don't implement the bazillions of edge cases and
rules that have seen so much time investment for 0.6 -- those ones you
don't anticipate then forget about once they're done.  And to say
nothing of the nightmarish build issues!  The vast majority of my time
was spent on that.

The writeup is here:

If you want instant gratification (of which there is no such thing in
actual software, only demos):

(1) alec's xul mockup, viewable on firefox 1.0:

(2) the svg calendar, viewable on the alpha firefox 1.5:
