32
33 Default: never
34 Alternative: always

48 ----------------
49
50 Default: no
51 Alternative: share
52
53 Share free/busy details generally:
54
55 * bundling in e-mail messages if bundling is configured
56 * responding to free/busy requests via e-mail
57 * publishing as Web resources if a static Web resource is configured
58
59 incoming
60 --------
61
62 Default: summary-wraps-message
63 Alternatives: (see below)
64
65 Define how incoming event messages are delivered to recipients:
66
67 message-only deliver only the incoming message as it was received
68
69 message-then-summary deliver the message first followed by a summary
70 message
71
72 summary-then-message deliver a summary first followed by the message
73
74 summary-only deliver only a summary of the message
75
76 participating
77 -------------
78
79 Default: participate
80 Alternative: no
81
82 Indicate whether a recipient participates in the calendar system. Note that
83 participation by default occurs because the handler programs will be defined
84 in the mail system for recipients fulfilling certain criteria; other
85 recipients will be handled in other ways. Thus, initial non-participation must
86 be defined by initialising this setting to "no" for all eligible users, if
87 this is the general policy on initial calendar system participation.
88
89 permitted_times
90 ---------------
91
92 Default: (none)
93 Alternatives: (see below)
94
95 Define the time values at which events can be scheduled. In its simplest form,
96 this indicates the resolution of a calendar for a participant supporting this
97 setting, with the given minute values being those allowed for the start and
98 end of an event. This setting requires a value of one of the following forms:
99
100 <minute values>
101 <hour values>:<minute values>
102 <hour values>:<minute values>:<second values>
103
104 Each list of values is a comma-separated collection of permissible values for
105 the unit of time being constrained. Any unspecified list is taken to permit
106 all normally permissible values for that unit of time. For example:
107
108 0,15,30,45 every 15 minutes from the start of each hour
109 10,12,14,16:0,20,40 every 20 minutes from 10:00 until 16:40 inclusive
110 12::0,30 every 30 seconds from the start of each minute during
111 the period from 12:00:00 until 12:59:30 inclusive
112
113 The purpose of this setting is not necessarily to impose availability
114 constraints but instead to impose a "grid" to which event start and end points
115 shall be "locked".
