Supplying another person's email address to a service, even an ostensibly benign one, without their permission is a breach of confidence. I know someone who goes ballistic when she receives an email "invitation" to share my photos, calendar, etc. from a third-party service. She fears her email address will wind up on spam lists.
such a person is probably not the target user for a sharing service.
So the issue here is not just having your calendar spammed, but having someone receive unsolicited email from a server they don't know. A "ticket" from a personal contact that gives the intended R or RW access avoids having a causal sharee (perhaps this scenario could be limited to Read Only) having to provide either their email or set up an account.
i think that is accounting for paranoia, which is beyond the call of duty. furthermore, it's the sharer's chandler sending notifications, not the server. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Open Source Applications Foundation "Design" mailing list http://lists.osafoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/design
