Re: [Evolution] Problem using Free/Busy meeting scheduling without a Groupware server

[Robert Henschel <Robert Henschel tu-dresden de>]

Chenthill,

thanks for the reply. Is there a timeframe for the fix to become
available to end users like me?
Can I grab a (unstable/test) release from somewhere that has the patch
already applied?
I would really like to show the feature working to my boss. ;-)

Regards,

Robert Henschel
