I am really starting to dislike the latest incarnation of Outlook.

"Starting to?" I quit helping people use it. Now, when someone calls, I simply tell them to download and install Thunderbird, which I'll gladly help them with. These are the few who don't have a clue yet and haven't dumped MickySoft for Linux yet. ;)

There is an unfortunate aspect to this that I suffer under. Big$ Bu$ine$$ has not moved to *nix at this time for end users. This includes a whole lot of smaller businesses as well. For example, the company I'm currently consulting with uses Outlook for calendaring meetings. I don't have LookOut, eh, Outlook and have not yet figured out a way to solve this problem.

In the *nix world if you're using Tbird as an email client you could install Lightning Plug-in which gives you a desktop calendaring app. Then if you have a gmail account you could then set up the google calendar to be shared. Then install and setup a plugin for lightning that allows you to link your google calendar. Now when you enter an event in Lightning, it will automatically "enter" the event in your Google Calendar and everyone that has share acces to it will see the event as well. All sharees would need to do the same from their end. Thus you have group access to calendars.
