Hi Folks, I hadn't worked on freebusy for several months, so yesterday I spent several hours figuring out where we're at. I put my results in bug 6593. In brief:
We've made lots of CalDAV sharing improvements since I last worked on freebusy, unfortunately they've made freebusy not work. None of these problems is big, but together it'd take a day to put it back together. There were already problems with freebusy, notably the need for a dialog to confirm erasing previous versions of the special hiddenEvents collection and fixing a few minor issues like making sure we don't restore the hiddenEvents collection when restoring shares. None of this is particularly tricky, it's just time. Finally, Cosmo's done a lot to move forward freebusy, but because we weren't actively dogfooding freebusy, we didn't give the Cosmo team feedback about freebusy problems in a timely way. There are still a few issues (currently freebusy tickets don't give PROPFIND permission, freebusy results are off by an hour, and all day events aren't included). I imagine the fixes for these aren't big, either, but I don't have first hand knowledge. All in all, I think all this is relatively straightforward, but I think all told it's on the order of a weeks work, and I don't think it's worth investing more time in before Preview, so I'd like to leave freebusy disabled for Preview (or, alternately, removed from the UI, if that's required for polish).
