I will have a closer look now, then get back to you. Ususally when I "look" at a package I routinely update it as well. Would you prefer that I roll back whatever changes I do during my "looking at it" and guide you to gain same understanding as me? Because if your interest is simply to get khal updated then simpler for me is do (hopefully) all myself and only tell you without leaving room for you to redo and potentially learn more from that DIY experience. I am happy to do that slower process - I find it fun to collaborate (am just not very used to it), so please do tell if you are eager to learn. :-) > P.S.
