Mac Curious?

Apple’s Leopard features page has some great news about the upcoming version of iCal.

Particularly nice updates:

• My personal favorite - because of CalDAV support and iCal Server, you can view attendees’ availability before you schedule a meeting. This takes the guesswork out of scheduling group appointments! Or let iCal do the legwork for you — use the new Auto Pick feature to find the best time for everyone
• Delegation - if you are out of the office, you can assign someone to take charge of your calendar in your absence
• Inline inspector allows you to click on an appointment anywhere on the timeline (day, week or month view) and edit it via a pop-up menu
• Drag and drop any documents, photos, PDFs or other files that are important to meeting attendees right into the appointment drop box - when you send email invitations, the attachments will be included!
• Room and equipment reservation

 It looks like little iCal is all grown up!
