I'm now dogfooding 0.6.1. I've put away iCal, at least for a week.
So far, so good, as they say. My assistant, Esther Sun, keeps my
calendar, so my primary use case is frequently consulting it to see
what I have to do next, what the current day is like , or how busy is
a specified interval in the future. I have a fairly full calendar
and it is not unusual to have 4 or 5 consecutive appointments of 30
or 60 minutes duration each.
The visual separation between multiple consecutive events is not up
to par. The problem is that it's hard to tell where one event ends
and the next begins. The shape of each event is rectangular on the
left side and nearly so on the right, with only a very small curved
cut-out at the top and bottom edge. I think it would really help if
the event "lozenge" was actually more lozenge-shaped so that a series
of consecutive events would read more as a set of oval lozenges
stacked on top of one another rather than a stack of slightly
defective legos.
