May 24-26 2010
CalConnect Mobile Calendaring Interoperability Test Event
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

The May 24-26 2010 CalConnect Mobile Calendaring Interoperability Test Event will take place just before and in conjunction with Roundtable XVIII, hosted by Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Note that the Mobile Calendaring IOP Test Event will take place in parallel with the regular IOP Test Event.

The event will take place all day (from 0800-1800) on Monday and Tuesday, and from 0800 to 1200 noon on Wednesday. Breakfast, lunch, and snacks at breaks will be served each day. There will be a dinner for all participants and observers Monday evening.

The Mobile Calendaring Interoperability Test Event will cover Mobile device testing, primarily ActiveSync synchronization. This will be based on the Mobile Calendar Interoperability Test Suite document produced by CalConnect CalConnect Mobile Calendaring Test Suite V1.1.

This document defines a detailed set of test suites to test the interoperability of calendar data exchange between mobile devices and/or desktop clients via synchronization servers. As synchronization continues to be a major pain point for many users of calendar tools (in particular members of CalConnect) we feel it important to continue on-going testing to improve overall interoperability.

A page on the CalConnect Wiki has been set up for organizations who plan to participate to identify which clients, servers, and versions they are interested in testing and to record specific scenarios. Please see ActiveSync Mobile Interoperability Test Planning.

TC MOBILE will be discussing the test event on future calls and member representatives are invited to participate. Calls are every other Wednesday at 11:00 Eastern.

For more information about the Regular Interoperability Test Event and for general information about the IOP Test Events, please see IOP Test Event May 2010.

CalConnect will invite all registered participants to two or three conference calls prior to the event to discuss logistics, testing scenarios, etc.

Co-Located Consortium Roundtable

CalConnect Interoperability Test Event participants who are not Consortium members will not be able to participate in the other Consortium activities unless their organization is an observer at this Roundtable. However, a non-member organization participating in the IOP Test Events can join the Consortium at the event, become a member immediately, and be able to participate as a member in the technical committee and roundtable meetings.

More information including logistics, testing goals and scenarios will be posted on this page as soon as it is available. Please check this page frequently for updates.
