That bug has been opened on https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/60123 "Since the last versions, the monthly calendar at the right of the calendar part of Evolution is replaced by a task list and a note list, which is less ergonomic. ...

Adding srini to CC list.
well, minimize the right pane and make the left pane wider, i'd say. very easy workaround.
Is this still required? It doesn't seem to be for many people, though.
there has not been other request for this change on the ubuntu bug tracker, that's only a feature request and it still applies but it's up to you to decide or not if you want this option or decide it's worth complicating the code
Rather than the code the user interface. If he doesn't like/use right panel, then that's no help for him at all. It will still waste the place for events. Andre's suggestion sounds reasonable and totally working. I would not call it workaround, it's just a way how to let it work to satisfy reporter's needs.
the suggestion would be alright if the pane setting was specific to the calendar mode but it's not, when you switch to the emails component you might want extra space to have a good overview of the messages list for example
No intention to implement this. Closing.
