What is the status of this ticket? I think the related PR is  
https://github.com/horde/horde/pull/127 which has only few comments.  
The last comment however "What I'm still misssing from this patch is  
one of the key points of the original request: the attendees aren't  
imported if I save a copy of this event.". First I couldn't find this  
request in this ticket, secondly and most important, in the current  
stable version of kronolith, the attendees are stored when copying the  
event and also when importing it from an invitation in imp.

Why I ask: saving the attendees when adding an event from imp seems to  
have been added within the last year. What seems to be an improvement  
on the first glance, leads to a lot of trouble: accepting an event  
makes me owner of that event. So if I change the event, I need to be  
careful not sending an update. Or worse, if the actual organizer of  
the event sends me an update on the event, and I accept that update,  
all other attendees will receive an email from me, as I was the  
organizer. Even worse, some colleagues use CalDAV with an external  
calendar tool: if they disable the event's notification, the CalDAV  
sync again leads to outgoing email notifications (no need to say, they  
already ask for alternatives to Horde).

I recently accepted events scheduled for next week, which have more  
than 40 attendees of different business partners. I don't dare to  
touch that event even a little. If something goes wrong and everybody  
receives an email, that for sure wont be a good advertisement for Horde.
