From: Amin on 9 Apr 2010 11:26 Many times when an organizer sets up a meeting, they set the begin and end time of the actual meeting. At times, a meeting is organized at a location where some attendees need to travel. During travel time, they will clearly be out of office. I suggest creating a feature so that attendees could enter estimated travel time within the same meeting event so that their status will be Out-of-Office before, during and after the meeting. Another issue with setting an accurate begin and end meeting time is that sometimes meetings will finish earlier / later than estimated. In other words, a person might say something like, "I have my weekly marketing meeting from 10-11am, but sometimes it goes to 11:15am". Lag times would help address this issue. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
