Hi,
I have been studying section 3.3, Methods For VFREEBUSY Components, and have a couple of comments/questions:
In 3.3.1, PUBLISH, the text says '"ATTENDEE" propertry must be specified', but the property constraints table specifies ORGANIZER=1 and ATTENDEE=0. Which is correct?
In 3.3.2, REQUEST, the text says 'The request _may_ be for a busy time information bounded by a specific time interval', but the table specifies DTSTART=1, DTEND=1 implying these fields are required. Is an unbounded request allowed?
In 3.3.3, REPLY, it states that the values in FREEBUSY MAY NOT overlap. Para. 4 of 3.3 says 'busy time periods MAY overlap'.
Is the intention that you can PUBLISH overlapping values, but must REPLY with non-overlapping values?
3.3 says applications must only publish busy time, and infer free time. Can FBTYPE=BUSY-UNAVAILABLE/BUSY/BUSY-TENTATIVE still be used, or is it always taken as a plain BUSY?
Richard.
