After a brief chat with Jeffrey and Reid on IRC: http://

We ironed out a bunch of details about the Month View that I think  
are relevant to the Hub UI as well.

A few additional details came out, including:
+ We need a state for the selected day (use same grey color as in  
Week View)
+ We need a state for 'Today' (use same color as in Week View)

+ Limit all-day / anytime events to 2 per cell
+ Add ellipses above the all-day / anytime lozenges if there are more  
than 2
...
[All-day Event 1]
[All-day Event 2]

+ Timed events that span multiple days only appear on the Month  
Calendar as an entry on the start date

Also, I've sketched out a way to use the mini-calendar to navigate  
between day, week and month views. This approach gives us the  
flexibility we need for moving towards user-definable multi-month/ 
week/day views, etc...

It could also be re-used in the Table View to define date parameters  
for what you see in the view

+ Click on Month title for Month View
+ Click on rectangular week handles for Week View
+ Click on specific day for Day View
