Abstract
Calendar entries can be added indicating a proposed change to a calendar event to electronic calendars of all event attendees when the proposed change is pending approval. This puts the attendees on notice of a possible change in a time or place of the calendar event so that these attendees can choose not to schedule conflicting calendar events while the proposed change is pending.
