[Cosmo-dev] Problems subscribing to the Office Calendar

[Pieter Hartsook]

Since this has been identified as a problem effecting the user
experience should we add this to the "known issues" on the landing
page", and suggest anyone using their own instance of 0.6.0 upgrade
when we have the fix?

(WARNING: POTENTIALLY DUMB QUESTION FOLLOWS-- Since it is just a
1-line fix - does this require a complete replacement of the Cosmo
installation, or is there a process that can just patch that one line
of code and leave everything else in place?)
