I've noticed that RFC2445 requires the date-time format to have no punctuation, 
eg. 

 yyyymmddThhmmss

The  hCalendar examples on http://microformats.org/wiki/hcalendar#Example have 
punctuation, eg. 

  yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss

which is more like RFC3339 (and better for both humans and machines, IMHO -- 
the 
timezone descriptors in RFC2445 are awful!)

This appears to be a deliberate hCalendar design decision, according to Note 4 
in  
http://microformats.org/wiki/hcalendar#Human_vs._Machine_readable  On the other 
hand, 
the examples on http://microformats.org/wiki/hcalendar-examples have no 
punctuation.


Is it correct to say that the hCalendar date-time format is specified by 
RFC3339? If 
so, I'd like to amend the Wiki pages to explicitly state the correct hCalendar 
date-
time format, referencing RFC3339.

Also, there is a scarcity of examples with times on the hCalendar page -- I'd 
like to 
add at least one meeting example with a start and end time.

Finally, there's a bunch of "@todo" items on the examples page.  If no-one else 
is 
working on those I could whip up a few.
