 | valign="top" | Implement Full iTIP/iMIP support
-| valign="top" | Lightning uses the iTIP/iMIP protocol to send and receive email invites. The most important parts of this are already working, but some parts ('''Clint: can you please elaborate here''') are still missing. Implementing this would improve Lightning's interoperability significantly.
+| valign="top" | Lightning uses the [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-calsify-2446bis-05 iTIP/iMIP protocol] to send and receive email invites. Currently, Lightning has the ability to send and receive event invitations.  It can also send and reply to event updates.  We are asking for help to implement deletion of appointments, rescheduling invitations, and delegating invitations to another person.  We must also do this in a way that upholds the iTIP specification and still manages to interoperate with Outlook invitations from Outlook 2000, 2003, and 2007 (as well as Evolution, Apple iCal, and other calendar clients - these tend to be more standards based, though). Implementing this would improve Lightning's interoperability significantly.
