Description

My cohort spent the day yesterday entering employee birthdays onto a calendar, and when I saw the 'Items since last login' box pop up with them, I realized: things like birthdays should really be in a Usertracker not a calendar...

But then they should also show up on calendars and upcoming events... that would be more, well, social.

I mangled the event cal and the regular cal code together to make up a special purpose tracker display for vacation requests.. all hardcoded and ugly at the moment, so of limited use to anyone else... but..

It occurs to me that others may have a use for some sort of tracker -> calendar interaction. The Birthdays in usertrackers seems to be the most obvious one, but date ranges would also be nice.

The interface may be icky though... i think the calendar should be able to pull things from the tracker, ideally it would be neat if it became a new cal that could overlay others (ie, "birthdays" and "beer bashes" could overlay so you knew who got free beer...).
