The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Task Extensions to iCalendar' (draft-ietf-calext-ical-tasks-17.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Calendaring Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Andy Newton and Orie Steele. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-calext-ical-tasks/ Technical Summary The Internet Calendaring and Scheduling Core Object Specification (iCalendar) (RFC5545) VTODO calendar component has been seen as the poor relation of VEVENT - useful only for personal reminders and to- do lists. This document updates and defines extensions to VTODO to provide improved status tracking, scheduling and specification of tasks to allow its use in other contexts, such as process control and project management. It also defines how Calendaring Extensions to WebDAV (CalDAV) (RFC 4791) servers can be extended to support certain automated task management behaviours. Document Quality Are there existing implementations of the protocol? This document is an extension to an existing data format and protocol. Support for the new iCalendar elements are being added to Libical (C/C++ library) and iCal4j (Java library). Support for the new CalDAV property is being added to the Cyrus server. None of the existing implementations are reported in this document but the source code of Libical, iCal4j, and Cyrus is available online. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Kenneth Murchison. The Responsible Area Director is Orie Steele. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
