The point I was making is that its 100% easy and straight forward adding ANY ATTENDEE at ANY time after SEQUENCE:0 in "my" (aka iCalendars) model. I just moved SEQUENCE ahead to 10 to reuse the fragments already in play but I see that easily confused some folks. Sorry about that.

Lets see if I can rephrase the point for you: Adding new ATTENDEEs at ANY TIME is no problem with a fixed RECURRENCE-ID model; your claim of "you can NEVER add someone to the series...after any change" is just flat out wrong. Yep, that about rephrases it just right.

And what about the example I sent to this list that shows how your model broken in that area? You know the one that showed that new attendess in your model can not process instance changes unless they just happen to be the same as the SEQUENCE:0 instances?

Above was an example of how easy it is to add someone to a single instance, I simply send them a REQUEST using the current definition and thats it. Adding them to the set is just as easy. I showed how easy it was last month when Arnaud asked for examples. To save time and effort Ill let you go check the archives for 'em if you are still unsure how it can be done.

Except all of your examples were how to modify an existing VEVENT and you called it inviting a new attendee. There is no problem to solve, just send them a VEVENT with NO RECURRENCE-ID as all of the examples in iCAL and iTIP show and every thing works. There is no need to invent a new way to invite an ATTENDEE.
