I despise the current javascript codebase, so if you have a better
one, it would be great!
Well, I hope it's better. I know it needs some work to make it a product quality calendar. I was wondering how this compares with the ADF faces calendar or any other similar component. I've seen an image of a similar component on an oracle web site, but I haven't looked at the one that was donated. Also, I haven't heard from any users if they want another component.

Great news Edwin !

You'll want to read this http://www.apache.org/licenses/ , fill out 
http://www.apache.org/licenses/icla.txt , and your employer will need to 
complete http://www.apache.org/licenses/cla-corporate.txt .  This can take many 
weeks to finish .

Make sure there are no third party dependencies that conflict w/ the apache 
license.

In the meantime you'll also want to refactor the component for the myFaces 
sandbox after you get a hold of the source 
http://myfaces.apache.org/source-repository.html and submit a patch in the 
issue tracker http://myfaces.apache.org/issue-tracking.html .  When the dev 
team feels the component has matured ( people use it, people ask for 
features/fixes, features/fixes are being taken care of ), it will be moved to 
tomahawk.

I'd suggest getting some real good documentation in order to generate interest 
in the component.  Start w/ the wiki.

Also, use dev@myfaces.apache.org for contribution related stuff.  Good luck and 
looking forward :)

Subject: Yet another calendar (also works in Java Studio Creator)

I recently developed a prototype JSF popup calendar component to
accompany some documentation for third-party component developers for
the product I work on.  Surveying other calendars on the web and fixing
problems in the currently shipping calendar, I think I have chosen the
functionality that 80% of users would want.  One thing that is different
is that this calendar has design-time support for Java Studio Creator.
I'd like it to be the basis for a real product quality component.  If
there's interest, I might be able to convice my employer to donate the
code to apache.  For screenshots and links to docs, you can look at
http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/edwingo?entry=component_authoring_for_creator.

BTW, I originally tried to adapt the myfaces inputDate component, but
found it would require runtime changes to the code.  It's still possible
to do this but when I started to write the sample, I decided to start
>from a clean slate.
