248093 - Remote calendar doesn't refresh automatically

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 215971

(Calendar :: General, enhancement)

Description

[Jaco Kroon]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.2; Linux) (KHTML, like Gecko)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113    Mozilla Calendar 2004040815-cal

When subscribed to a remote calendar, which is being accessed by two people from 
two machines simultaneously, changes made on one machine aren't reflected on the 
other machine until the calendar is manually told to refresh the calendar. This process 
would be a lot better if it automatically refreshed every minute or so (configurable 
option preferably). 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Subsacribe to remote calendar and. 
2. wait.  Unless configured to reload remote calendars upon startup this will never be 
refreshed, and if so, only upon startup of the calendar. 
 
Actual Results:  
the calendar didn't get refreshed 

Expected Results:  
calendar should be refreshed periodically.

This really is a enhancement that we need.
Here in my work, the only thing that users ask me to "change" (as if I could) is
the annoying fact that they must ask, manually, to update the calendar.

Thank you.

Bug 215971 has more info, and is older.

In my opinion its solution is more accurate to what we should do.
