Release of Preserve Declined Meetings in November

Next month we will release a new feature called Preserve Declined Meetings (PDM) to keep declined meetings on the calendar, instead of deleting them like today. Once you tum it on, your declined meetings will no longer disappear but remain on your calendar so you can easily recollect related info/docs, find associated chats, or even take actions like updating your previous response (RSVP) and forwarding it to someone else; all while keeping your agenda free in that time slot.
