Thunderbird / Lightning and Free/Busy together with DAViCal
Hi,

Thanks - I already found it and enabled it.

Now I can see the following in the error console:
"CalDAV: Server does not support scheduling; freebusy query not possible"

Huh?
I thought DAViCal promotes the scheduling extensions as supported?

I also had a look at the packets (with wireshark) and I saw the following header
(HTTP/1.1 200 OK) as response to an OPTION request (only the relevant lines):

Shouldn't that be OK?
Or does Lightning need other / additional information?

A response to a PROPFIND also contains the above lines in the header
and additionally this as XML-data (also only relevant lines):

best regards,
Matthias

You're right - Lightning 0.9 does not unescape the extracted XML strings.
I found this out yesterday about 10 minutes before I saw your mail :-)

I currently fixed it by adding some unescape calls to the Lightning XUL code.
Really easy - I wonder why this is not already done; it does not hurt when providing
already unescaped XML strings and helps when they are escaped.

After that patch my 0.9 Lightning works together with DAViCal 0.9.7.2 again ;-)

I don't know if the current Lightning code introduces some additional prolems,
but I'll try it this afternoon / evening...

with regards,
Matthias

BTW,

Lightning looks for "calendar-schedule" OPTION and also for "calendar-auto-schedule".

DAViCal provides "calendar-schedule" - but I wonder what the "auto-schedule" is...
Andrew, do you know that?

with regards,
Matthias
