Likewise, access needs to be removed when an individual leaves the University or otherwise quits using the calendaring server. CNS could tie this to the normal removal of an individual's K-State Computing ID and also make available on the web a form where an individual can choose to be removed from the server. The long-term solution is the emerging vCalendar Internet standard and other protocols associated with it. In the short-term, CNS needs to determine the best way to transfer the people's schedules from each of the tools listed above into Netscape Calendar. Preliminary research by the committee indicates that Netscape Calendar can import vCalendar while GroupWise can export schedules in that format.
Further research is needed.

GroupWise was strongly considered, especially in light of the new Novell site license that includes GroupWise. Training costs will be considerably higher.
