Hi Conny

You're free to limit the access to the /freebusy url using allow/deny in 
the apache2 configuration. I guess it's useful to open the freebusy url 
to organizations that are linked together to share freebusy 
informations.

It's up for discussion if we should limit it to localhost only in the 
default installation or keep it that way (was easier to debug stuff in 
the beginning). Securing your services is a complete section on its own.
