Hi,

Because such a feature needs to be programmed which has not happened  
yet :) Of course you are right and it could be done. I suggest to open  
a feature request in the bug tracker.

This should be something we can easily change. Another feature request though.

This should not be the case (at least not if the users have relevant  
events in the displayed period. You should invistigate this using the  
troubleshooting guide in the wiki and post a bug if this is not  
working on your installation.

This an incorrect information and I definitely need to change that in  
the next horde installation. We don't use the Horde free/busy script  
when running the web client on a Kolab Server.

Cheers,

Gunnar
