I guess that we still need to identify on what files we actually do depend.
For this I have made some suggestions before.
If you have found a set of files for the resmgr and the freebusy module,
just try if this still works after removing the others.

Another attempt would be to read up on Horde and php inclusion rules
and try to create a dependency graph.

The subset that is needed for resmgr and freebusy would need to be included,
but I think I am getting a bit confused here about the autoconfiscation.
I think the goal was to get a Kolab Server running from tarballs?

At least part of the Horde code is needed by resmgr and freebusy,
so 2. never was an option. (Or am I missing something?).

You only want to have the fbview in your own module.
But if the part of Horde needed for resmgr and freebusy is a large
fraction of Horde, then we do not win much be removing this feature anyway
and we would need to go with 1.
