Ok, I don't have to talk about 'calendar', Kevin has already done that,
thank you. I remembered him as the person most responsible for the module.

With regard to 'imap4', that module is not deprecated. But simply only
because it never was in a state where it could be called a module which we
could deprecate. The code in that directory is something we imported from <I
do not remember anymore> about I think 2 years ago. With the intention/hope
that someone understanding IMAP would take the code and beat it into shape
for Tcllib. This has not happened. As such this is, from our POV, pre-alpha
code, and not a module fit for installation.

Page, aka parsergen, is the support code for apps/page application of mine.
This stuff is working. I agree that it should get documentation and a
testsuite ... As I have/find time.
