Because I've been looking for a calendaring solution for 4 or 5 years,

used Schedule+ on Windows for years (and Mac users and Linux users were
left with nothing), but with each new version of
Windows/MSOffice/Outlook, it became harder and harder to keep the system
working (because of under-the-hood breakage that Outlook introduced);
finally this past December we declared Schedule+ dead. Since then, our
campus solution has been the SunONE Calendar, but it's web-based, and
has no pop-up appointment reminders, doesn't sync reliably with PDAs,
and is just uncomfortable to use (being web-based). I really had high
hopes for Mozilla Calendar, as it is cross-platform (Wow! Yippee!
Boo-yah!), mostly does the shared calendar thing (but not with SunONE -
arghghg!), nor does it have PDA sync. (And it currently doesn't have any
active developers apparently).
Yikes...they could have had the best of both worlds with koffice/kontact.
