Unsupported Attributes in Appointment

howdy,

I stumbled about some odd behaviour of OG.o concerning some document
fields that are described in the XmlRpc documentation;
the concerned documents are Job and Appointment (there might be others,
that I don't know about yet);

The problem:
a call to eg. appointment.update takes the Appointment document as argument;
but some of the fields documented in the XmlRpc doc. seem to be
ignored  with the update call; if you send a document that contains
these fields as an argument of the call, you don't
get them back in the returned (updated) document;
They cause "Unknown field" warnings when delete is called with a document
that contains these fields (the warnings are shown on the output of
skyxmlrpcd);

Another odd thing is the XmlRpc doc:
the description of eg. the Appointment doc has a sample document (in
Python) and a table describing the fields... but the fields that
cause trouble are only in the table and not the sample code;

The fields concerned for Appointment are: "type", "cycleEndDate",
"aptType", and some more (for some info on the problem this causes in JOGI
see
http://bugzilla.opengroupware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=269 , at least
I suppose that that bug is connected to this behaviour);

I can file a bug on Bugzilla, though I am not sure which component this
concerns (xmlrpcd, OG.o, ...);
