> A few days ago, outlook.com shared ICS calendars seemed to stop working, for no apparent reason.
> Every 10 minutes, I get these warnings in the CLI:
> {noformat}

> {noformat}
> As a result, calendaring has completely broken in Asterisk for me.
> Importantly:
> - This happens with all calendars for Outlook.com, and in multiple Microsoft accounts, so it's not an account issue.
> - Other ICS links work fine without triggering these warnings
> - Outlook.com shared ICS calendars work fine in other calendaring programs, e.g. mail clients
> So the problem is both specific to the Office 365 ICS format as well as Asterisk since both are required to trigger the problem. Even if Microsoft changed something, it seems to work fine in other applications so there seems to be some lack of support given the 400 Bad Request errors.
> Tested with both Debian 10 and Debian 11, and Asterisk 18.9 and Asterisk 18.12.
