 Stephan,
 
 I approve the removal for two reasons :
  - The application is useless (the dates are harcoded) 
    : no event can be scheduled after december 2010.
  - There is no  mantainer for the code *the last
    version was released in 2001*
 
 Maintaining this application active is a good way to
 confuse users about ports reliability. 
  
 regards,
 Rodrigo
