Issue/Introduction:

In the MSP New Driver, master projects cannot be saved back to PPM after the calendar associated to a resource on one of the subprojects is modified.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create two projects, p1 and p2

2. Make p2 a subproject of p1

3. Create a resource, r1, using the Standard 8h Calendar

4. Create a task on p2, assign r1

5. Open p1 with MSP

6. Save p1 back to PPM. Note that the project saves back successfully.Close MSP.

7. In PPM, go to Home > Resources and open r1's calendar

8. Change the shifts on two days (example: November 24 and 25) so that the resource only works 4 hours (8AM-12PM) each day

9. Open p1 with MSP

10. Attempt to save the project back to PPM

Expected Results: The project saves back successfully.

Actual Results: MSP hangs on the 'Sending XML data to PPM' step and the project cannot be saved back.
