OK, I will give it a try.

However, on a more serious note... I am long time Ubuntu user and Ubuntu
is my ONLY operating system for years. Even at my job.

Often it is not easy to be the only Linux user in business windows
environment.


That is why I think Ubuntu needs to greatly improve calendar support. I
am really missing tight integration of calendars in Ubuntu. And like it
or not, Google, Microsoft and other calendar should be fully supported.

Gnome Calendar has some serious and weird issues. Thunderbird calendar
integration is very poor. I would really like that developers give a
little more attention to that.

Because as I see things, calendar and task management in business world
is very important. Especially when we all try to work online.


It would be nice to get some feedback from developers if they have any
plans to look at those issues in a near future or not.


Regards,

Matej
