David,

Great work. It's wonderful that you're still working on this!

On my mac (10.5.5) in both FF (3.0.5) and Safari (3.1.2) no image for 
Avery displays. I only see blue circle with a little box around it.

These collapsed events display no image, just a generic image placeholder.

A general question about your original design decisions:

The js object for event data takes the form:
{
"events":[
{event},
{objects}
]
}

why not simply an array of event objects:

events = [{event},{event},...]

Did you envision this map having keys in addition to "events"?

Are there circumstances in which it might?

Just my usual naive curiosity.

best,
Jon
