Mozilla project's Calendar

For what it's worth, the Mozilla folks have a Calendar tool out, too. I'm not sure if it has all the bells and whistles you need, but it interoperates with Apple's iCal, allows sharing of calendars across a network (or the Internet), and can send you reminders of deadlines. So far my experiences with it have been good.
Mozilla's mail and calendar packages are, together, getting almost good enough that you can replace Outlook with them in a corporate, Windows environment, in my opinion. (Yes, I'd rather go to Linux, but that's harder to sell.)

I agree. Recently I was dragged kicking and screaming into the present (future?) by my parents use of OS X's calendar. Mozilla was the only thing that seemed to interoperate with this on linux, but I admit only to a non-exhaustive search.
I was surprised to not see mozilla's offering reviewed.(Same with sylpheed for the email client write-up, BTW.)

Another vote for Mozilla Calendar here. I kind of wish the old Calendar app from Netscape 4.x worked (is now CorporateTime and commercial). There's a nice doc on how to make a "poor man's calendar server" with the Mozilla calendar which is pretty cool. Looking at the roadmap, I'm pretty excited about where this project is heading.
