Guests’ roles in meetings tend to vary as well. Some people have to be there to lead the meeting or help make decisions, whereas others are gathering information they may be able to digest just as well via the notes. Without knowing which attendees are crucial and which are optional, it can be difficult to know which meetings you really need to attend.
That’s where Google Calendar’s new “Optional attendees” feature comes in. With a couple clicks, you can openly communicate the importance of a meeting for each attendee. Click on the “Make some attendees optional link” above the guest list and then toggle the role of each attendee by clicking the icon next to his or her name. So far, this feature has helped us more effectively manage our own time on the Calendar team — we hope it does the same for you.

I would really appreciate it if you would fix the deal-breaking meeting organizer bug. As it stands, I cannot use this product and I really wish that I could.
I would love for this feature to be included in Google Apps. As of right now, it does not appear to be available. Will this be rolling out to all users of Google Apps soon?
hmm i am ready for test this feature but couldnt find this
how can i do this :(
I love Google Calendar after a month of using it. So, this new feature ("Optional attendees”) as a great added value where I can interact with the selected attendees. Now I can shift to "Optional attendees” instead of using facebook.
Ummm...where is this?
How do i set up for Optional Attendee?
