What is the timeframe for integrating the components if any?
We were already planning on running a separate Workgroupshare server which is $6995 for unlimited users. Even if the collaboration component did replicate it would cost us $23,000+ to upgrade based on your pre December 31st pricing discount, a $16,000 difference is hard to justify. To push the point further, if the integration was to occur after the December 31st price offering then we are looking at $70,000+ to upgrade our systems to ICS while Workgroupshare unlimited is still $6995 for a whopping savings of $63,000.
Can you give a generalized timeline for peering integration? Not to mention fixing the lingering problems with services crashing or hanging if one peer is down or unreachable.

The shared calendar portion of ICS does not support peering; the data
between different Workgroupshare servers will not replicate itself to other
servers. You could set up all your users on one WGS server while your mail
is still peered between multiple servers. IIM also does not support
peering, but you can link the different IIM servers together so you can see
the users on each server and IM to users on any of the servers.

Subject: [IMail Forum] ICS and Peering Questions
I have a few questions regarding ICS in peer setup...
Does ICS distribute the user data between Imail peers for inclusion in the address book for a distributed domain setup?
For example, in my 7 peer setup, will everyone show up in a shared address book or will they only see the users on the server they are homed to?
Will the shared calendar info replicate throughout the peer group?
Does the IM component work in a peer group or can you only IM users homed to
the same server?
