Hello Stefan,
Enhancements needed, for interacting with calendars: attached picture is what
needs to be covered.
Outlook is your main opportunity, as you know, to carve out a teeny market
share from ordinary users on Win 10,
as well as commercial users that have to interact with M'soft Active Directory
environments, without
being forced to use Outlook. Also, the requested calendar-posting capabilities
needed will cover users
having to work with Teams, Zoom, etc. So, Google calendar, Outlook/Exchange
calendar entries, and iCal entries
covers most of the bases that really matter.
