Re: R7 group calendar print broken?

Hello DominoSecurity readers, 
 
In my last newsletter (below), I urged an upgrade to 6.5.5 and 7.0.1 for 
security reasons. Thanks to one of the readers on this list, I have become 
aware of a feature problem in the Notes client software 6.5.5. If this 
feature is important to you, you may want to keep your Notes client 
software at 6.5.4 and wait for a later release. 
 
The problem is that calendar delegation does not work properly after 
upgrading a Notes workstation to 6.5.5. The delegatee cannot create 
repeating events, reschedule meetings, or edit a meeting in the 
delegater's calendar. This is a serious, possibly show-stopper, issue for 
many Notes organizations, since calendar delegation is so widely used.
 
Lotus has confirmed the existence of this problem and slated a fix for 
6.5.6, which is scheduled for January 2007. In my opinion, this is too 
long to wait, since calendar delegation is common. I have expressed this 
opinion to Lotus via the Partner Forum.
 
Note that this problem is related to the Notes 6.5.5 client software. The 
problem does not appear to be in the 6.5.5 Domino server or web browser 
access to a 6.5.5 server. Also, no one has reported the same issue with 
Notes 7.0.1.

Hello DominoSecurity readers, 
 
Over the last few weeks, Lotus/IBM released versions 6.5.5 and 7.0.1 of 
the Notes/Domino products. These releases fix several security 
vulnerabilities, so Lotus urges all customers to upgrade. I concur. I have 
waited a while before recommending this upgrade, to make sure there were 
no regression problems. I have seen some reports of various, fairly 
obscure, issues but nothing that is a show-stopper. See this link from IBM 
about the security fixes...

R7 group calendar print broken?






I have a group calendar that was created for R6.5.1 users who now have 
been upgraded to R7. Problem is that when they view the group calendar, 
and want to print it, during the print preview they only see the detail 
entries for their own calendar and the entries for the other users in the 
group do not appear on the preview nor do they print. The users have 
entries on their calendars, and have delegated access to the calendars, 
and this worked when they were at r6.5.1.

Anyone have a similar problem and a resolution perhaps?
