RE: Recurrence ID changes?



If all changes could be rolled into a single instance, then I agree.  For instance, if only the date-time changed then addition of an EXDATE and RDATE properties to the original component would suffice.
 
However, as soon as you change anything else about an individual occurrence (i.e. Subject, Attendees, Categories,etc) then this cannot be represented in a single component.  One component must be sent for the original event definition and another component would have to be sent with the individual RECURRENCE-ID changes.

Actually I dont think so.   Why would you send 2 entries, the "original" and the "update"??  Aren't all messages supposed to be 'full snapshots'?  If so, only the 'current ' state needs to be sent.  Hence, if the SEQUENCE was 'stale' then the Organizer would send a new full snapshot in a single message; not a 'base' and then the most recent 'delta' (as that wont suffice at all).
