This is 100% personal opinion of course (and current only up to PR1.1), but I didn't find it fit for purpose. Buggy in various showstopper ways (eg producing invalid icalendar output, or events moving around with TZ/DST changes) and I couldn't get it to sync with anything I found useful.

Dates (from what was later called Pimlico) did show a lot of promise, especially UI-wise. Too bad it conflicted with rtcomm and had to go :-(
