Abstract
The Smart Meetings Plug-in for automated calendaring software allows meeting invitees to add comments when accepting a meeting invitation so that all invitees to the meeting can see the comments in the calendar entry created by accepting the meeting invitation. When automated calendaring software sends an invitation to a first recipient and a second recipient on an automated calendaring system, the automated calendaring software creates a calendar entry for the first recipient and the second recipient in response to receiving an acceptance of the invitation. Responsive to receiving a comment from the first recipient, the Smart Meetings Plug-in adds the comment to the calendar entry for the first recipient, and also adds the comment to the calendar entry for the second recipient.
