By allowing the Admin and the users to import their
own particular dates, that would allow folks to ensure
that whatever dates are meaningful to the
business/individual are in the OGo Schedular.  It
would be difficult for the OGo team to maintain all
the information that all
business/political/religious/etc. would require.  It
would be easier to maintain a list of Calendar sites
in docs.opengroupware.org where folks could get there
own.
