The Calendar package is the same all known platform as far as i know 
since that is defined by the standard.
But if you by platform independent mean using the same binary 
representation for data (to be sent between machines) which is a 
complete different story.
I would use XML as data carrier and use some platform independent middle 
ware for transmitting data.
