Hi all,


i have configured my calendar.conf accordingly to the Asterisk-the
definitive guide 4th edition and even though i can see the calendar, it
always shows me as free.
as you can see in the attached printscreen from my calendar, it has 3
bookings today, but the asterisk calendar shows me as free.  Here is what's
going on

PBX*CLI> calendar show calendar myGoogleCal
Name              : myGoogleCal
Notify channel    : SIP/601
Notify context    : calendar
Notify extension  :
Notify applicatio :
Notify appdata    :
Refresh time      : 15
Timeframe         : 180
Autoreminder      : 10
Events
------
PBX*CLI> calendar show calendars
Calendar             Type       Status
--------             ----       ------
myGoogleCal          caldav     free
PBX*CLI>
