Gnomecal was already orphaned once, and may be again in the future.
Last I fiddled in the code, it was pretty buggy in a number of
areas. Why do you think that it (and not Evolution, or the KDE
calendar, or plan, or remind, or something else) will be the dominant
calendaring app in Linux? And why does it matter?

What it doesn't handle are floating holidays or things like the DST
switch. That's one reason I don't use it anymore.
