What about the ability to make an event which repeats on the
'last something' of the month, rather than just the 'Nth something'.

For example, a LUG out in my area holds meeings on the last Monday of
each month. But... depending on the month, that might be the 4th
Monday, or the 5th Monday.

Any my company holds 'community meetings' on the last Tuesday of
each month.

I can't keep track of either of these on my Zaurus. It's one of few
things I miss from PalmOS's calendar/datebook program.

While I'm at it, I've noticed one other slight annoyance in the
Qtopia calendar. If you set the end time of an event FIRST (eg, 10pm),
and then set or change the start time (eg, change it from 6pm to 6:30pm),
the end time gets changed to an hour later than the start time without it
asking you (in this case, the 6:00pm-to-10:00pm event ends up turning into
a 6:30pm-to-7:30pm).

It should only ever change the end time of an event the start time ends up
being AFTER the end time (not just the hour-of-day, either -- It should
be perfectly valid to have a 5pm to 1am event, if 1am is the next day ;) )

BTW, this is on a Zaurus with Sharp's 1.11 ROM.

Thx!
