    I like how it is still referred to as Sunbird

    matt:
    The standalone application still is named Sunbird. It only appears as “Calendar” in the nightly builds and in builds created by other non-Mozilla entities (ie: Ubuntu, Debian, etc.).
    When we are ready to release, we’ll enable the Sunbird branding once again for the release builds, and then disable it once more.
    I hope this clears up any confusion.

    I run widescreen and the lightning UI takes up to much of my account pane… cant it reside somewhere else or atleast can it remember the size I set it too! keeps coming back as the same fixed size hiding my mail accounts..

    Great program I really love it. A couple of problems I am having is that when i try to make an exception it applies then, but when I go back to it, it has not been applied. I would really love to be able to make bi-weekly reoccuring events, since many people get paid bi-weekly.

    @Charles:
    You can use ‘Occurs: Daily Every: 14 Days’.

    I dug around trying to find a place to make suggestions/recommendations but can’t easily find anything. Could someone post a deep link?
    If not, I’d like to suggest at least giving the user an option to display the user-selected time range in the day view in the complete window without scroll bars. I have mine set to 8a-5p but on my 1280×1024 display I can’t see anything after 4p without scrolling.
    Thanks and keep up the great work!

    Hello,
    Is there a way to backup the data in the Sunbird calendar in case of a problem?
