Description

Follow up to #1023

  • The room/resource should be checked for conflicts when generating slots
  • only slots that are also available for the room/resource should be shown
  • booking the room/resource should happen at the same time as booking the meeting
  • allow suggesting a room/resource by attendees as well as organisers (for group appointments)
  • possibly specifying a room and 1 or more resources allowed (ex: appointment is in a Room in Office B, Organiser or Attendee needs Car Resource to get there from Office A. This leads to interesting follow up questions if one of the rooms/resources could be booked for preparation duration + length + follow up duration of an appointment).

Research direction

Start by reading the linked follow-up issue #1023 and tracing the existing appointment slot-generation and meeting-booking flows. Define how room and resource conflicts affect displayed slots, booking atomicity, attendee suggestions, and preparation or follow-up durations. Done means the agreed resource-booking behavior is implemented and covered by the relevant tests.
