There is in fact nothing at all that differentiates it. You can set the
calendar related fields but these can be used just as validly for
publish
and perish dates for an article.

The manual describes the functions but is wrong about the parameters.
Here's
what's right:
mgd_list_topic_calendar_all($topic, $start, $range, $sort, $type)
List articles by date range.
$start is the unix timestamp format (as returned by
the PHP function time()) of the startdate/time, defaults to the epoch
(beginning
of time AFA unix IC).
$range is the number of days to span, defaults to end of time.
$sort is a sort specification as outlined in
http://www.midgard-project.org/manual/function.list-topic-articles.html,
defaults to creation date
$type limits the returned articles to those that have their type field
set
to the specified value, defaults to no type limit.
the _fast function does exactly the same but does not return author
information
other than the author id.
Note that these two functions return all articles under a topic tree,
not just the
topic ID passed.
