So many people I respect are supporting calendar view, a feature I view as a 
waste of time. I wonder why? Perhaps I am picturing something totally different 
than you are. 

I am picturing something like what you get when in Outlook when you include 
tasks in the calendar and take a month view - a five-by-seven matrix with a 
date in each box, many boxes otherwise empty but some boxes overflowing with 
cryptic abbreviations of task names. 

Are you picturing something better than this? 

Would you put a task in the box for the start date? The due date? Both?

Would you draw a bar from the start to the due?

Would you use the dreadful five-by-seven matrix? Or would you put a 31-point 
scalar across the bottom of the page?

Maybe one of the supporters of this function could draw or at least describe a 
prototype of your vision of a calendar view. 

If your vision of calendar view includes start-to-due bars over a 31-point 
scalar, then we would be well on the way to a gantt chart, which I think is the 
only reliable way of showing tasks over time and balancing commitments against 
resources.
