The domain covered by this document - is still within the scope of the Working Group as defined in its - Charter. + The Calendar API was intended to enable API access to a user's calendar + information. The + <a href="http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/">Device APIs Working Group</a> + worked on both the calendar data format and calendar interfaces but + then decided to change the approach to enable general Web use both to + address security concerns and to enable wider use in a web context. The + <a href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-device-apis/2012Sep/0097.html"> + plan was to learn from developing the Contacts API</a> and apply this + work to the Calendar API. The Contacts API was revised to use + <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/web-intents/">Web + Intents</a> and then discontinued when Web Intents work was stopped. + Subsequently work on the Calendar API was also discontinued following + a Working Group + <a href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-device-apis/2012Sep/att-0131/minutes-2012-09-26.html#item07">decision</a>. + </p> + <p> + The Charter of the <a href="http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/">Device APIs Working Group</a> + continues to include this work as "in scope", so the working group + could decide to resume work if warranted by new information. </p> </section> </body>
