Look at the NuxWidgets product (CVS):

I maintained the CalendarTag for about two years, and later
developed NuxWidgets as its equivalent for ZPT, so this could
be considered an authorative answer ;-)

If you want to use the CalendarTag instead, I guess you'll
need to use DTML and ZPT templates, the ZPT calls the DTML
and the DTML calls the calendar tag. Maybe.
