Got a configuration issue to work out on my HEAD install (events are saved
but don't show up :)  But I don't think that affects my ability to try
this.

But I can tell you already that splitting the create and edit areas is a
major improvement.  I was in the middle of a demonstration about a month ago
and someone asked me how to create a new calendar, and I stumbled around a
bit until someone told me how to do it.  Having the Create button beside a
menu that  says "Select a calendar to edit" didn't make for the most
intuitive interface :)

I like being able to use the menu to toggle one calendar on and off.  For
users that only have two calendars, that saves them from having to go to My
Calendars, just to hide it.  But I also like having the choice to toggle
multiple calendars on the My Calendar page - useful if you have access to a
lot of calendars.  Using CSS to display which calendars are active is a huge
improvement, although it excludes the color blind.  Thats a concept that's
easy to teach - if its colored, its active.
