Calendar 1.0 - Search events by Date Range and/or Category

Hi All,

I would like to know what is required create a search form which will search events from the Calendar module like the following;

Keyword/s:  _____________________
Date From:  dd/mm/yyyy
Date To:    dd/mm/yyyye
Category:  Food (Drop down list of all categories)

The idea being the search would combine keywords, date range and category to find matching events and list them in a results page preferably using the "list" (display="list") template.

I am a fairly competent PHP developer so I am wondering if someone has done something similar or could point me in the right direction.

Thanks,
Ben

Bump!  Me too!  At the moment it seems that you can only access categories that have already been assigned to an event - and I'd like to access a list of all available categories like the browsecat parameter in the News Module.  I'd be more than happy to give this a bash myself if someone could explain how I go about accessing the categories defined for events.
