All the best LibO folks,
This discussion about calendars etc. may be interesting perhaps also
useful -- but back to the basic question!
Microsoft is going to change their behavior.
Let us remember that MS is the absolute market leader -- they can't be
totally wrong when having 95% and people accept paying.
It is no use blaming MS for success -- it is only waste of energy and
expresses your foolishness. LibO only have to accept it.
Whether you like it or not MS's programs use to work without remarkable
problems - and if such happens MS fixes them rather quickly.
That is why people and especially companies seem to be prepaired to pay
what ever the cost.
What I have tried to say is that if LibO wants to get a reasonable share
oh this cake -- free of charge or not -- then LibO must offer and also
deliver something better than the MS's Office suit it's Access included
-- equal is far away from enough.
Some of you said that ordinary users -- and even more experienced -
seldom use more than a 2-5% of the LibO's (MSO's) features.
Why not then identify the 30% of all most used features and make sure
that at least these work properly -- Base included.
If LibO cannot be made at least as stable, free of bugs and easy to use
-- and especially it's help function understandable for every new user
-- then there is no larger future for LibO except for a small group of
idealists and enthusiasts in their own little kindergarten.
I see this as a question of defining priorities - and a strategy.
If the goal seems clear and clever then then the resources will at least
not disappear.

Don't need any of those for Google Calendar - you can use Caldav which
doesn't require any extension at all.
