Abstract

A command identifying an electronic meeting definition created by a meeting organizer, using electronic calendaring software, and a modification to be made thereto is received from a user who is distinct from the meeting organizer. Based on the identified meeting definition, the user is determined to be a delegate of the meeting organizer for modifying the identified meeting definition, but not necessarily other meeting definitions. Based on that determination, a command for causing the software to modify the meeting definition is generated. The generated command is made to appear to the software as having originated from a user having sufficient privileges to modify the meeting definition (e.g. the meeting organizer). Delegates may be designated on a meeting-specific basis through a user interface. The designation may result in storage of a data record for future use in determining whether commands to modify that meeting definition shall be effected.
