Alright, I hired Watershed Studios (http://watershedstudio.com) to implement this for us since I don't have time, and they did a fantastic job. Brian Groce was a great support in getting this moving. He set this up to be a 30 day outlook, as well as current day/late milestones.

His directions:
-------------------------
"Brady,
I've attached the first version of the activeCollab Upcoming Events code.
We created this in a manner that requires minimal core changes.
Installation...
To install backup your files and FTP these three files:
init.php
application/views/dashboard/index.php
plugins/upcomingevents.php
init.php
This adds the call to the new plugin file/directory...
// Watershed's hack: get plugins
$plugins = glob(dirname(__FILE__).'/plugins/*.php');
if( is_array( $plugins ) ) {
foreach ( $plugins as $plugin ) {
if( is_file( $plugin ) )
include_once( $plugin );
}
}
// end Watershed's hack
application/views/dashboard/index.php
This adds to function call to display the additional milestones...
<?php if ( function_exists('extra_milestones') ) extra_milestones(); ?>
plugins/upcomingevents.php
This is a new file and directory and contains all of the functionality used to display the additional milestones."
-------------------------
So in theory, add the plugins folder with content, replace the other two files, and it works just fine - atleat for me!

Works great! Thanks so much for sharing Brady! This makes waiting for 1.0 that much easier.
One glitch I'm seeing, don't know if you are. This week doesn't show things in chronological order.
To fix the order.
FIND:
return self::findAll(array(
'conditions' => array('`completed_on` = ? AND (`due_date` >= ? AND `due_date` < ?) AND `project_id` IN (?)', EMPTY_DATETIME, $from_date, $to_date, $project_ids)
)); // findAll
REPLACE WITH:
return self::findAll(array(
'conditions' => array('`completed_on` = ? AND (`due_date` >= ? AND `due_date` < ?) AND `project_id` IN (?)', EMPTY_DATETIME, $from_date, $to_date, $project_ids),
'order' => '`due_date`'
)); // findAll

'conditions' => array('`completed_on` = ? AND (`due_date` >= ? AND `due_date` < ?) AND `project_id` IN (?)', EMPTY_DATETIME, $from_date, $to_date, $project_ids)
)); // findAll

'order' => '`due_date`'
)); // findAll
that does it! a note to others trying this, if you want to save a backup of the original upcomingevents.php, rename it to something like upcomingevents.bak and *not* upcomingevents-bak.php, having two .php files with similar code in the plug-in folder causes a conflict that breaks activecollab.

Fantastic, thank you both for the improved directions and updated code:)
