DESCRIPTION:

This is an incomplete but quite functional API implementation to yahoo upcoming. It’s actually a stab case gone too far, in that this started as a single file.

I have no real use case for this, and as such, little motivation to finish it. Requirements before release are: 

 * Complete API calls that require POST (not covered by the meta-crap)
 * Add tests or specs

Personally, I won’t release the lib until these are done.

To complete the API, look at the API docs on yahoo upcoming, and line up with the example in +Event#add+.

At present this serves as an example of a reasonable pattern for implementing web api handlers not covered by typical REST libs. There are various notes in the code that bear further attention.
