Oh-Oh....

In the schemas for ws-calendar, the granularity parameter was lost during some final edits.

<xs:element name="granularity" type="xcal:DurationParameterType" substitutionGroup="xcal:baseParameter"/>

This should have appeared after line 21 of the schema file iCalendar-wscal-extensions.xsd

The parameter appears in the Specification, and is used for several documented purposes. It is also critical to several parts of EMIX and Energy Interoperation. Its absence is due to an error in my quality checking of same late-arriving changes that modified the declarative patterns in some other schema types.

It was discussed in Friday’s meeting, with the acknowledgement that this would drive the production of a PR04, with associated delays of other standards. No one in the quorate call was vwn aware that it Had dropped out until I brought it up.

This is clearly a procedural violation, but if it can be fixed before the schemas go out, it would enable to the samples, specifications, and schemas to match.

CC’ing the TC in the interests of transparency and to allow any of them to protest, if anything path is suggested to fixing this prior to publication.
