Description

Steps to reproduce

When I view another user's calendar (for example, a colleague), the status of invitations (accepted or declined) always matches my own choice, not theirs.
If I decline a meeting and the other person accepts it, I see the event in their calendar as “declined” instead of their actual response.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Create an event and invite multiple users. User A invite B
Image
  • B received the invitation
Image
  • B declined the invitation
  • When B have a look to the A agenda, both seems "declined", you have to clic in the details to see that A has accepted
Image
  • it shows your own response, not theirs.
Expected behavior

When viewing someone else’s calendar, the invitation status should reflect their response, not mine.

Actual behavior

This makes it hard to know others’ availability and leads to misunderstandings in team event planning.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the shared-calendar invitation flow described in the issue and trace how each attendee's response is obtained and displayed. Done means that viewing another user's calendar shows that user's accepted or declined status rather than the viewer's own response, including the reported multi-user event scenario.
