The calendar situation on Linux sucks. I just want a nice, minimal GUI program with month, week, and day views and proper support for CalDav and iCal that can run unobtrusively in the background and send notifications.
Is there anything like this or will I have to write it myself?
The Gnome, KDE, and Pantheon calendars feel too tied to their respective environments, Emacs sucks for time management and scheduling, and I the command line calendars seem to all require WM-specific hacks to get background notifications working

@skadi i think this is due to "anything with calendars sucks" and "caldav is hell". i have given up on the whole calendar on the computer topic. notifications are a clusterfuck too, like anything freedesktop.org comes up with ;)
@bonifartius Yeah, the authors of some of the programs I've looked at tend to have ...colorful things to say about iCal and CalDav.
The only thing keeping me from capitulating and buying a physical planner are notifications, however I get by fine without them now so realistically they probably aren't that important.
My admitedly limited experience with libnotify is that it sucks a lot less than other freedesktop projects, notably xdg-utils.
