[Kolab-devel] %SERVER%

[Martin Konold]

Hi Bernhard,

I read on kolab-commits at kolab.org

> doc3: Corrected the image olfreebusysetup.png to match the text, by

> olfreebusysetup.png: replaced %SERVER% with the real server address,

In the normal case %SERVER% expands to the kolabHomeServer and therefore is 
equivalent but keeping %SERVER% is more flexible and more generic.

E.g. when keeping the %SERVER% then the URL used can be literally the same in 
all installations and it can be copied from documentation without the need to 
understand which server actually to put in.

When doing central administration it is also simpler to have the very same 
string for all clients independent of location etc.

Last but not least keeping %SERVER% allows the Outlook users to retrieve 
internet freebusy for contacts which are NOT Kolab users but which happend to 
publish the ifb on their on servers. (E.g. MS Exchange).

I therefore kindly request you to revert the change.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
