[Zope] Caledar Tag

[Jason Spisak]

Martijin,

I was having a lot of trouble comparing dates in the Catalog call.
So I used this way.
I also wrote this code with 0.1.0 of ZCatalog.
I'd love to be able to ask the Catalog for just a months worth of data and
then iterate through it for each month displayed.  But it didn't work.

Probably does now though.

All my best,
