I'd hate to say this, but this is mainly for personal reasons. If someone
had already made one, I was going to use it and leave it at that. I will
create one(in Google) regardless of what happens here for my own personal
use.
As far as Yahoo is concerned: Zimbra(admittedly, built by Yahoo) is just a
desktop client used to access Yahoo's calendar, which, itself is not open
source. I also hate Yahoo's interface, account system, and other aspects of
the company and its products(Not that this really matters, it is just
personal preference).
And Google: GNOME's online desktop access Google's products, I use online
desktop. Also, with the exception of the obviously proprietary(GMail, GCal,
etc.) Google is more involved with open source than Yahoo(Think Summer of
Code projects, Google Chrome). It is also worth noting that Mugshot, a
service created by RedHat interacts with Google products. I also believe
there are some major open source groups that use Google Groups.
I'm not trying to imply Google is super open source, just that there are
just as many opensource interactions (think zimbra-yahoo) as there are in
Yahoo.

Hi Kamisamanou,
I was wondering if you would consider Yahoo's calendar. Google's is not
open source, but Yahoo's new calendar uses Zimbra which is open source.

Subject: Release Calendar(GCal)
I am wondering if there is a Google Calendar available for the Fedora
Releases. If there is not, I would like to volunteer to start and maintain
one. If I do, I would update it daily with the dates from
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/latest release +1/Schedule from
the wiki.
