And the same goes for Calendar. Just to comment that the Calendar manual has never (AFAIK) been in one place. The stuff that is in the xtra manual at present used to be in the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual (which doesn't make much sense as a home to me) for years. So putting it all in the main manual (since it's already been established previously that it should not all be removed from there) would mean that the introduction of emacs-xtra would have the effect of _increasing_ the size of the main manual in this area, the opposite of the intent. Yay.
