Rainer, we understand the situation however there are no proper calendar applications available. Sure there is Lightning as an add-on for Thunderbird, however I don't think it is included by default. Probably a bug report is to be opened in Thunderbird to include. We are working on a calendar app for the Ubuntu Touch phone. And if it becomes mature, sure it might even become default on the desktop but until then we just have to wait a bit.

I think this is not expected, since it is not so useful to open calendar data as standard text). In Oneiric Thunderbird is default email client. Currently Thunderbird7 beta is installed, and I noticed the Lightning extension for Calendar is not compatible with it yet. Will Thunderbird/Lightining be possible values for Calendar applications?
