You can share your personal calendars as well as create additional calendars for shared using. Please note that (depending on the configuration) the recipient may be able to see all your appointments, unless you mark them as private.
The release is only allowed to HTW members. Should an external release or publication of a calendar be necessary, then the IT Service Centre can allow this for selected calendars. Please contact service.rz(at)htw-dresden.de or send a request via the contact form.
If your computer is within the DOM domain, it can also be shared via Outlook.
