OK, I don't know enough about CPSSkins to understand why this makes a 
difference. :)

Partly, yes. The CPSSharedCalendar portlet is a CPSSharedCalendar 
portlet and shows CPSSharedCalendar events. But the main reason is that 
Nuxeo doesn't have any use for it, so we will not do it. If somebody 
else wants to, then they are welcome, it is open source after all. :)

However, it seems to me that if you want a portlet for CMFCalendar 
events, then that's what you should have, not try to force the 
CPSSharedCalendar portlet to do it. :)

Yes, but that's a completely different story from what it does now. The 
events are different types of objects, they are found in a different 
way, and the attributes have different names.
