Cal.com moved its production code private, leaving Cal.diy as a thinner community edition for personal use only. The shift removes enterprise features and raises maintenance questions for self-hosters. Easy!Appointments emerges as the strongest fully open alternative, while Nextcloud Calendar suits existing Nextcloud deployments. #opensource #selfhosted #calendaring

Huge thanks to @maximiliano and @TheEvilSkeleton for reviewing & merging this very long-awaited UX improvement in GNOME Calendar's infinitely scrolling month view: the previous/next buttons (and corresponding keyboard shortcuts) now properly clamp to the beginning of months when switching months! :blobmiou:
See the "before" vs "after" demonstration videos in the merge request: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/merge_requests/369

I don't feel like explaining this. So I'm just going to post a link to my posts elsewhere & the hashtags. But I'm proud of myself, gods damn it. \^/ If the hashtags are of interest, go look, or just go look if you feel like it? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Another notable feature merged in the GNOME Calendar live coding session today: the ability to export an entire calendar as an .ics file.
This was originally added to the wishlist 10 years ago: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/31
Thanks to @FineFindus's dedication towards implementing this (alongside the individual event .ics export feature) this year, you will be able to use this feature in #GNOME 50 (or the nightly flatpak version of Calendar today): https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/merge_requests/615

This is exciting, a community member, Oscar has just dropped that they are working on upgrading Koalagator from Rails 7.0 to the latest Rails 8 release.
PR for 7.1.x to 7.2.2.x just landed.
https://github.com/koalagator/koalagator/pull/62
Other contributions welcome, have a look at our issues and drop us a line if you'd like to get involved.

Great news for @EvolutionGnome users: in Evolution 3.58 (expected to ship alongside GNOME 49 in Q4 2025), the calendar events conflict checks in meeting invitations received via email will now respect the user preferences; this will boost performance quite a bit: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/1441#note_2382738
We will need someone to implement the corresponding per-calendar property in #GNOMECalendar's calendars management GUI, see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/1297

Does anyone out here have days where they have more than 7 to 10 (or more) all-day events in their #calendaring app, instead of time-based events, and if so, why?
My default assumption is "surely nobody does that?": https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/917 -
It burns to be running a poll to get a meeting time, when we all have Calendars populated with data already.

In case anyone feels up for a feature implementation challenge in GNOME Calendar: it would be cool to at least have a read-only implementation of meeting attendees, as a stepping stone to full-fledged meeting invitations management someday. See this limited-scope actionable ticket for details: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/1354

Alright, you FLOSS business folks with countless appointments and meeting invitations each month, hear me out: what if in @EvolutionGnome we could have an integrated visual preview of the surrounding schedule context of an event you are being invited to? 🤔
Here's my ponies-on-rainbows suggestion for it (other #GNOME email clients are welcome to steal my idea): https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/2950

I always saw "floating time" events as an "accidental" undefined timezone state for #calendaring events.
I cannot believe it took me twenty years to finally understand the true usecase for this weird format feature: routines/habits that you want to do at the same time of the day no matter where you happen to be in the world. I am mind-blown :psyduck:Here's my feature specification for #GNOMECalendar's timezones picker GUI that I hope to see happen in time for #GNOME 48: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/1329

New #calendaring #UX design nightmare: timeless time-based events!
How would you expect to manage and visually represent, in #GNOMECalendar, events with a start time but without a defined end time? :psyduck:

Apropos of nothing (OK, ongoing outages at my provider), does anyone know of a calendar client for Android that uses the same on-disk directory format that PIMUtils VDirSyncer uses? Or any other flat-file calendar database or files tree that could be shared for sync?

Some additional details to take into account for whoever wants to do meeting events invitations handling in their standalone #email client (like #Geary and Envelope) for integration with #calendaring apps in #GNOME: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/geary/-/issues/363#note_2222868
Related: a newcomers-friendly bite-sized feature request in #GNOMECalendar to ensure we don't wreck mail clients' performance with large amounts of online calendars: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/1297

Narrowed down a performance issue in @EvolutionGnome where checking for "existing version of this appointment" (when receiving an invitation via email) is very slow.
In the end it's mainly due to a rather simple thing: the GUI checkboxes allowing you to exclude events from "conflicts search" scope do not actually limit the scope for "search for events' existence in the calendars" 😬Help wanted:

#events that affect me (e.g. my son being busy) but not everything on some other person's calendar.
The ideal solution would be that #Google would allow one to "merge" events so that they only appear once on the calendar even when viewing multiple calendars.
But then again, the ideal solution would be a better #calendaring application. For example, I think I'd like for dates to scroll rather than move month by month - that way I could be viewing the last two weeks in June and the first

New #calendaring specs compliance nightmare fuel for #GNOMECalendar developers and designers: the fact that events can reference completely made up "virtual" timezones 😵
In which a university campus platform declares to be its own timezone (with #DST, of course!): https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/1243

Making a "smart" #calendaring application that can guess user intent when setting/modifying an event's start/end times can be a challenge.
For example, in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/1123 I am struggling to think of a straightforward heuristic for the app to determine what to do when the user inputs an end time before the start time. "Snake, you can't do that, you'll create a time paradox!"
Hivemind, can you help?

I’m sure glad I learned how to play Tetris as a kid. Just didn’t know I’d have to apply those skills to re-arranging my work calendar each week. #Work #Calendaring #Tetris

Interesting open source alternative to #Calendly that I just DISCOVERED. Anyone know if it's accessible?
"Meet Cal.com, the event-juggling scheduler for everyone. Focus on meeting, not making meetings. Free for individuals."

Friendly out of office reminder:
When we are talking about dates, “through” means “including,” not “until.”
“Out through the 12th” means you are not coming back until the 13th.

#Calendaring
I'm somewhere between obsessed and annoyed by pretty much any opensource calendaring solution. They all suck in differing depths.
This is also the reason I'm interested in @calendar_social but “I don't get it”.
Have I not found a resonable explanation of what it aims to achieve or what the desired purpose of the project is?Can somebody with more knowledge about it please explain what it's for and how it could be used (for a community)?
