CalConnect Collaborations

CalConnect Collaborations are associations between CalConnect or a CalConnect Technical Committee and external organizations to assist in the development of external work products which are not considered to be CalConnect Work Products. Such work does not go through the regular CalConnect Last Call and Publication processes and is not assigned a CalConnect document number; however, CalConnect and its Technical Committees have materially contributed to the work.

CalConnect Technical Committees also develop specifications intended for immediate submission as Internet Drafts to the IETF, but which are considered CalConnect Work Products. These drafts are documented in CalConnect IETF Submissions.

OASIS WS-Calendar
CalConnect maintains an active liaison with the OASIS (Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards) WS-Calendar working group tasked with defining a cross-domain standard for passing schedule and interval information between and within services. WS-Calendar is also the name of the specification and the eventual standard. It is built around the CalConnect CalWS Proposal.

jCard: The JSON format for vCard (RFC 7095)
This specification defines "jCard", a JSON format for vCard data. The vCard data format is a text format for representing and exchanging information about individuals and other entities, for example telephone numbers, email addresses, structured names and delivery addresses. JSON is a lightweight, text-based, language- independent data interchange format commonly used in internet applications.
