i have one calendar in my Calendar application. it's set to automatically
publish to a remote url after every change. i tried to make changes to my local
calendar while not being connected to the internet. i could complete the edit
event dialogue, and even continue adding, but when closing and restarting
calendar, no changes were safed.

1. have a calendar set to automatic remote publishing
2. disconnect from the internet
3. change an existing event in you calendar and click ok
4. close calendar application
5. restart app.
6. find out, that your changes aren't there anymore

Actual Results:  
no changes were made

Expected Results:

Ueli,
   Can you say whether or not this happened regardless of whether or not you had
an internet connection when you restarted Calendar? I can understand why this
would happen if you did have an internet connection on restart (but still a
bug), but I'm curious as to whether or not it would happen if you did not.

to be honest, i don't remember anymore.
but: i'm on a cable connection (24/7), but have two computers running, which are
not on a router together. so if i'm offline with one of them, then i'm offline
all the time. which leads me to the solution, that my connection status DID NOT
CHANGE, while running calendar. of course it could be that the connection
failed, but i had this bug happening repeatedly, so i don't think that was the
problem...

hope this helps.
