GNOME Calendar users, rejoice!

After 7 months of pain and suffering, we finally reworked the event details popover, which will be available in GNOME 47!

The new event details popover builds on top of the existing UI/code, while adding a few improvements and behavioral changes:

• The popover displays the changes-prevent (lock) icon when the event is read-only.
• Each section is properly separated with separators, with equal amount of margins.
• Location and Meetings section are mutually exclusive; only one is shown.
• When an event has no event note, the popover will always explicitly display that there's no event description.
• The action button adapts its icon and tooltip text depending on the event permission.

I would love to encourage y'all #GUADEC attendees to use the "Download" button from the event's Indico platform (that button is in each event's details page) to use it directly in #GNOMECalendar, but… it turns out that you'd run into this silly timezones bug where the event importer dialog considers UTC times to be the local time 🤦

So… can I motivate someone to send a merge request for gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-c… ? This would be timely for #GNOME's main conference next week 😉

When clicking today's date in the sidebar's minicalendar, some events will randomly appear or disappear (#1255) · Issues · GNOME / gnome-calendar · GitLab

Every #GNOMECalendar user owes a HUGE amount of gratitude to @khemicalkoder for solving the timelines backend bug that flew under the radar for years! It was causing at least two heisenbugs and obfuscating testing for a bunch of other bugs in the #GNOME calendaring application. This merge request was absolutely amazing: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-c…

In addition to the 2 bugs fixed, these two other issues become clear enough for newcomers to fix:
