Mobility - Synch the groupwise subscribed calendars to the mobiles

I *used to* have this in GW8 Seems to have disappeared in GW 2014...
They will provide alternative ? Or just stop supporting ??!
This would be very beneficial! We have some internal web based scheduling software that can produce ICS information. Right now users have to download and import the ICS file to get it into their main calendar so it shows up on their mobile devices. But it also has the option to offer a calendar that we can subscribe to. But subscribed calendars don't sync over to the mobile devices. We need this!
Subscribed Calendars are different from regular Calendars. Subscribed calendars in GroupWise are not stored in the GroupWise database. Calendar events are dynamically read and populated in the client. End users can't change the events.
Mobility would not see add/delete/modify events from GroupWise.
An alternative work around on an iPhone to get the subscribed calendar on the device, do the following:
1. Add account
2. Other
3. Add Subscribed Calendar.
I hope that clarifies and the work around is useful.
