Hello Igor,

Thanks for the link on "SOGo Resources". I will read that tonight and see
how much I get to understand.
I had already checked the SOGo Installation Guide.

Here is what I think caused my problem: I had logged in as the resource and
created an event. Sorry, I did not remember to keep the event details
before I deleted it. However, after I deleted the event, I was able to
login as myself and create an event and invite the resource as a
participant - successfully.
Viewing the Raw source of the event:

BEGIN:VCALENDAR

END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR


So, perhaps what I need to understand is that when multiple_bookings =
1 and someone else already has booked an event, then the resource
become unavailable, right??? That would explain why I wasn't able to
add the resource as participant in my event because resource already
had a booking.

If the room1 is a resource, should it not be able to accessible it at
different times, as long as there is no clash/overlap in the
schedules?

I think this Resources thing is beginning to sink in now -- if a
resource is booked for an event, it should be unavailable to others.
However, I think it should be available when there is no clash/overlap
in the event schedules, right?
