Meeting request cancellation issue

When users in our company create a meeting request and correctly book a
meeting room as a resource, we find that if they need to send a cancellation


the booking is not removed from the calendar of the meeting room. It appears
in the calendar as cancelled and marked as free. Although it is not
preventing people from booking the room, because we have so may meetings it
is causing confusion and cluttering up the calendars. Is there a way to
prevent this from happening??

anyone have any ideas.? I tried this Microsoft article. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/235904 but it only filters out on the local machine. Individuals sharing the calendar still see the canceled requests unless i ask every employee to follow the same filtering steps. (this is completely unreasonable)
