Summary: This draft is ready for publication as a Proposed
Standard.
The draft has 0 major issues, 0 minor issues, and 2 Nits/Editorial
comments.
Nits:
1) Real pedantic nit, sorry.
S6.1.4 is about eavesdropping and not data integrity, right?
But the misuse suffered by a cleartext iCalendar object is
given both treatments: lack of privacy and loss of data
integrity. A simple suggestion would be to remove "and/or
changed" from S6.1.4, and have a new paragraph as follows:
Data Integrity
The iCalendar object is constructed with human-readable
clear text. Any information contained in an iCalendar object
may be changed by unauthorized persons while the object is
in transit.
2) Acknowledgments:
s/S.Silverberg/S. Silverberg/
And finally, this is more for curiosity than anything else
-- are there any provisions for 3rd party event requests in
iTIP (i.e., an assistant sending out a request on behalf
of someone else.) I could not find any references in
the draft.
Thanks,
- vijay
