G'day,
Sunbird is a cross-platform calender and appointments Manager.
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/sunbird/

This is the last update for Sunbird; now that Thunderbird has integration with the Lightning plugin. But this is a good stand-alone application and meets many of my daily/weekly appointment needs.

This has been tested on a fresh install of Fat-Free Puppy-3.01_xorg. It appears to work fine. However, I have heard that it "supposedly" works better with sqlite and g-conf-2. But for everyday stuff I haven't found this necessary. I have included a desktop entry for 'Personal'.

Am curious to see how it goes in Puppy 4.

This is nearly a 10mb download. Click this link to download:

Has this already been compiled as a PET file?

If no, you can simply go to their website to download the installation files:

G'day,
Most Mozilla packages are like that but I have just made running it a little easier as well as beta testing it. But if you want a challenge then try that with the Spicebird project - there is a few issues there which I haven't overcome.
The main advantage for installing this version is that I have made a desktop entry. If you want to do this manually then download and extract it. To make it run from the extract, enter this code in Terminal:

OK, thanks for the clarification Smile
