	Hi,
yes, that's correct, the server added the ORGANIZER and the ATTENDEE,
which turns it into a meeting for the Evolution, despite the organizer
and the only attendee is you.

>From the RFC 5545 at the ATTENDEE property:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5545#section-3.8.4.1
(taking only the relevant part):

   This property is not specified in an iCalendar object that
   specifies only a time zone definition or that defines calendar
   components that are not group-scheduled components, but are
   components only on a single user's calendar.

The last part of it matches your use case and intention.

If I'm not mistaken, the component editor does not show the attendee
when it matches the organizer, thus when you open the event it shows
empty attendee list. It's because, from the Evolution point of view,
the organizer is an implicit attendee, even in reality it does not need
to be.

	Bye,
	Milan
