However, people don't want calendaring, they want Outlook. Offer a solution which doesn't allow Outlook to work ``like it should'' and you risk learning more about Exchange than you wanted to. I guess Outlook might start to talk CalDAV, but I personally doubt it: it would undercut Microsoft's Exchange business which is very lucrative for them. OCS has an Outlook plugin I suspect for this very reason: it avoids management refusing to accept a solution which doesn't do what they see as the right thing: the rest of us use the OCS Linux/ Solaris/Windows/OSX native clients or the web front end, all of which work very nicely. Your management won't regard CalDAV as a standard, they think Outlook is a standard. And ``not as seamless'' is a key admission. ian ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
