Bogdan, Thanks for the kind words :) Constructive criticism is always welcome as the goal is to improve the product. However please do follow up with the appropriate posts and report enhancements / issues in tracker.
Regarding the Calendar event dialog customization, that appears to be an enhancement request rather than a bug. I still could not find a user id by your name however I did find a similar thread : http://forums.smartclient.com/showthread.php?t=4900 As you can see, the user was advised to 1) either create an enhancement request that other users could vote on or 2) make the enhancement themselves since it is open source and share their work. However no such enhancement request was created in tracker. Please email me your SmartGWT forum user name so that I can view the other posts / issues reported by you. New features are being added to SmartGWT / SmartClient at a really really fast pace. This should be evident by the release notes of each new release, and the commit logs in SVN. For example some 10 significant new features have already been added since the SmartGWT 2.0 release, and countless other minor enhancements as well. So unless users file issues and enhancements, it is not going to be easy to track. Moreover even if you do have a feature request, prioritization will depend on the number of votes it receives which is typical of how most OSS works. If you are a commercial entity you also have the option of contacting Isomorphic and getting the feature added in a timeframe that meets your needs. As mentioned above, you can also dive in and make the change yourself since it is open source. So kindly be a little patient when reporting enhancements and issues, and follow up by posting a request in tracker with a testcase if you encounter a bug.
