Folks, we're looking for beta testers for our full-state Exchange to Office 365 (and vice-versa!) calendar migration.
We've got it all there: live guest lists, re-created responses, meetings being actual functional meetings when it's all done. But we always find the real world is a lot better place to test things out than our labs (however good we've gotten at anticipating problems).
Interested? Want to discuss for informed consent? Contact us.

Exchange On-premises to Office 365 calendar Migrations
One of our long time friends of Sumatra is considering an on-premises Exchange to Office 365 migration and has determined that the lack of a full-state calendar migration is a problem. All meetings come over as appointments without guest lists or they come in through the long, tedious PST method and there is no way to easily re-map the addresses.
Not that we predicted this coming issue a few years ago or anything.
So the short answer is: yes, we can handle this, keeping the meetings and guest responses live.
Anyone else out there looking to be an early informed consent test subject?
