@legoktm Was just alerted to the fact that apparently you can still request it from The Register
(I'm guessing that link will disappear soon, too)

GNOME Calendar has gotten *so good*, it just handles ICS files, multi-day events, multiple calendars, and mismatched timezones so well now. Hands down my favorite calendar app on any platform. If there's a "most improved app award", surely it must be a contender.

Most of the world has standardized on FLAC, a highly capable and patent-free audio codec, for its hi-res music delivery format of choice.
I wish we could now do the same for video, using AV1.
