Ummmm ... no :)

You can upgrade to the calendar in HEAD, but not downgrade.  There are
db changes which can not be rolled back.

Soon I will be breaking the 16 compatibility for calendar in HEAD.  I
will post when this happens.  Until then you can upgrade to calendar in
HEAD, if you want some of the extra features.

Updating from stable cvs should not be an issue, there is only bug fixes
there.

Cheers
