The IESG has received a request from the Calendaring Extensions WG (calext)
to consider the following document: - 'JSCalendar: A JSON representation of
calendar data'
  <draft-ietf-calext-jscalendar-32.txt> as Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
[email protected] mailing lists by 2021-06-01. Exceptionally, comments may
be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning
of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

This second last call is specifically on the following diff:

https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc8984-ad2-diff.html

And on the following technical additions to the document:

* "features" in section 4.2.6
* "recurrenceIdTimeZone" in section 4.3.2
* "sentBy" in section 4.4.5. and 4.4.6
* "requestStatus" in 4.4.7
* as a consequence, updates to the IANA registries in 8.2.6 and 8.4.3.

The document was with the RFC Editor since November 2020. However, last minute 
implementation attempts found some edge cases of incompatibility between 
jscalendar and icalendar data models, which resulted in wg discussion and the 
changes above. The additions were discussed extensively at IETF 110 and 
confirmed during a following interim.

Abstract


   This specification defines a data model and JSON representation of
   calendar data that can be used for storage and data exchange in a
   calendaring and scheduling environment.  It aims to be an alternative
   and, over time, successor to the widely deployed iCalendar data
   format, and to be unambiguous, extendable, and simple to process.  In
   contrast to the jCal format, which is also JSON-based, JSCalendar is
   not a direct mapping from iCalendar, but defines the data model
   independently and expands semantics where appropriate.
