Re: [obix] More on WS-Calendar

[Brian Frank <brian.tridium@gmail.com>]

I think one key detail that will be critical for integration with oBIX is to have timezones identified with their Olsen tzinfo identifier.  This is how oBIX represents timezones.  From what I remember, iCalendar does not prescribe any standard database for consistent naming.  So hopefully we can get clean alignment on that issue.

I think I’ve already contacted all active members of oBIX on this, but wanted to make sure….

 

 

WS-Calendar is a proposed specification that is anticipated to meet needs in smart grid, enterprise interactions for buildings, emergency response communications, real estate operations, and many other areas where coordination of response between domains is important. WS Calendar is part of the US national smart grid standards roadmap as defined by NIST.

 

The attached draft is almost ready for submission to the OASIS process as a proposed charter for the WS-Calendar Technical Committee. OASIS Charters constitute binding agreements and work plans. The attached document is a draft that is approaching readiness to serve as the official call for participation, but would still benefit from additional comments.

 

I thank the many people who have provided comments and input to get the document to its current state.
