Thanks Dave,

if the calendar service does not return tasks, what could be the recommended way to access them? The data service returning the task view content?

Re: Recommended way to access tasks
Yes.  You could certainly use the data service to access the tasks view.  One caveat is you would have to enable the data service for both the database (the mail file) and the tasks view.  That is commonly done in a custom mail file design.  All mail files that inherit from the design will then allow access through the data service.

Of course, there are other ways to access the tasks view over HTTP.  For example, you could create a web agent or implement a REST service in XPages.  There are other options too, but all require server-side programming.  The data service is the only option that works out-of-the-box.
