/**
 * Class to access AND manipulate all calendar data (business object)
 *
 * The new UI, BO and SO classes have a strikt definition, in which time-zone they operate:
 *  UI only operates in user-time, so there have to be no conversation at all !!!
 *  BO's functions take and return user-time only (!), they convert internaly everything to servertime, because
 *  SO operates only on server-time
 *
 * As this BO class deals with dates/times of several types and timezone, each variable should have a postfix
 * appended, telling with type it is: _s = seconds, _su = secs in user-time, _ss = secs in server-time, _h = hours
 *
 * All new BO code (should be true for eGW in general) NEVER use any $_REQUEST ($_POST or $_GET) vars itself.
 * Nor does it store the state of any UI-elements (eg. cat-id selectbox). All this is the task of the UI class(es) !!!
 *
 * All permanent debug messages of the calendar-code should done via the debug-message method of the bocal class !!!
