i did look into reinventing the calendar with socialhelix.
the problems with calendar design don't stop there, for one, time is not metric, it's actually really messy.
did you know that GMT time and UTC time are not second -> second equal?
time varies based on geography, different locations have different rules.
politically - time changes when political will needs it to, so ... the rules can change from year to year.
time varies with history, over time the rules have changed and so, the dates when those rules change must be tracked.
the importance of a calendar item can change drastically based on emotional reasons, physical ones like traffic, or even cost.
events are a very hard thing to quantify.
