Abstract

This specification covers the UI of the Invitation dialog needed to accept and reject event invitations delivered i.e. by a WCAP provider.

Mock-up for a new link showing up in the calendar UI

The "Invitation" link below the calendar subscription area gives the user an entry point to the Invitation dialog. Furthermore it gives feedback how many unhandled/open invitations are on the calendar server. A number in brackets at the end of the link indicates how many new invitations are present. This number will be updated every 10 Minutes. If there are no invitations "(0)" is being displayed. If there is no calendar using WCAP provider, the link is hidden completely.
