Accept & Do Not Send a Response

Julia Foran 

Someone brought up the topic of when you would want to accept but not have your attendance registered, and that is something I used to think of when I would accept and not send the response.  The idea was that I would be adding it to my calendar for awareness but would not want to be considered as acknowledging that I would be there to represent my team.  (On a change control, for example).  Now I just use Tentative for that.  I think if the invitee's response is always going to be registered with the organizer, then Accept/Tentative/Decline is all that anyone would need and the default should be to not send an email reply.
