- (23.01.2003) new implementation for calculation of calendar week (currently only european style, that means, the first week is the week were the 4th Jan is in, the calculation is isostyle - so the week for calculation starts on Monday)

Version 1.1e

- (25.08.2002) release of version 1.1e
- (25.08.2002) compiled unter 10.1.5 for compatability reasons, compile with 10.2 caused problems with older systems (I will definitely drop 10.1.x-support for Version 2.0, because I don't have 10.1.x installed on my Powerbook.)
- (25.08.2002) switched back to the old icon style, if you like the new, open the application bundle and choose one of the three files with "smallCalandar" in the name and rename it to "smallCalendar.tiff", this will be used
- (25.08.2002) set the priority of the NSStatusItem back to 8001, that means right from the clock (not command-draggable, perhaps in a later release)
