new translation - Swedish strings added
February 18, 2008
bug fix - duplicate events - Fix bug where duplicate events could be created when editing a repeating event, changing it to non-repeating.
January 21, 2008
new feature - per-access param to hide Details column in List View - add "HideDetails=1" to URL in List View to prevent the Details column from being displayed. Useful when including calendar into an iframe. Also, this param supercedes the value from calendar settings, so if that column is set to not display, passing "HideDetails=0" will force it to be displayed.
January 9, 2008
new feature - option to check for time conflicts only for events that share a category See the "General Settings" settings page.
January 3, 2008
bug fix - double-click to edit single instance of bannered, repeating event - Now works a bit better, instead of just displaying error message (which happened if calendar default set to "edit only this instance")
December 11, 2007
bug fix - Event Export date range - Date range selectors on the "Export Events" form now work correctly; were off by 2 years, e.g. selecting "2007" gave you 2005.
November 5, 2007
bug fix - Mail Notification for repeating events had repeating description wrong for events which repeated less often than "every sixth". (E.g. "every 12th month" was reported in the email as "every month".)
September 28, 2007
translation improvements - more & improved Finnish strings, mostly in "Settings" pages
July 26, 2007
interface fix (minor) - selected minutes when editing event - To keep frequently used items at the top of the list, the "minutes" pulldown on the edit form has duplicates for values "5, 10, 15, .. 55". When editing an event, the top instance will now be highlighted instead of the bottom one. (E.g. for a value of ":45", the ":45" between ":40 and ":50" is selected, instead of the one between ":44" and ":46". This makes it easier to change from, say, ":45" to ":00", no scrolling needed.
July 23, 2007

March 25, 2007
bug fix - event times in "Calcium" import format - events with no times no longer import as "12:00am"
March 14, 2007
bug fix (minor) - Outlook export file name - use "Events.csv" instead of "Events.calcium", so Windows knows what to do with it. Also change MIME type from "text/x-Calcium-Events" to "text/csv".
February 13, 2007
new feature (minor) - location field in export - "Location" field is now included when exporting in iCalendar and Outlook formats. Also in iCalendar subscriptions.

November 29, 2006
bug fix - redirect after login failed - in certain circumstances, like double-click to add in Time Plan view, supplying password would log in, but then display an "ARRAY" error. Should now work properly.
November 28, 2006
bug fix - automatic HTML links - event text like 'www.site.uk.com' will now be properly made into full links; was only working with three parts, e.g. that would have been a link to 'www.site.uk'
October 19, 2006

confirmation message - adding long-duration repeating event - an "are you sure?" message is displayed if a repeating event that overlaps itself is added; almost always a mistake. (E.g. an event that has a duration from Monday 8am until Friday 5pm - *and* is set to repeat every day.)
August 3, 2006

bug fix - newlines in iCalendar import - when importing iCalendar events, display \n in event summary and details as a newline, not the two characters '\' and 'n'
May 31, 2006
bug fix/feature - extended chars on edit form - when editing an event that has extended characters, it now displays the character in the edit field, and not the HTML entity code. E.g. for an event with an Ω, it will display Ω when editing, not "& #937;"
May 24, 2006
