There are three major ways of interacting with free/busy I'm aware of.

A) Shaniqua publishes her free busy to an HTTP server (could be CalDAV,
could be something else)
B) Landis publishes all his events to a CalDAV server, the CalDAV server
dynamically calculates free/busy
C) Delin responds to an iTIP request for free/busy information

It would be very appealing to implement B) in a Scooby/Chandler/Cosmo
world where users might not be using Chandler all the time.
Unfortunately, this requires that users publish their whole calendars to
a CalDAV server.  This is likely to be significantly slower than
publishing a single VFREEBUSY file, so I don't know that we should force people to do this. I also don't know if/when Cosmo is likely to support
this.

I think we definitely want to support A) and C), SWAG: 5 days.

(Replying to a somewhat old message in this thread):

Cosmo trunk (0.3) supports free-busy reports.
