Hello,
I sent the attached message to the IETF calsch WG a few days ago, and
haven't gotten anything back. Does anyone here have strong feelings
about this, and/or a reference?
I'd like to see something moving towards a (hopefully short) standard
here, as there are a number of different application domains. Or
perhaps I'm just missing one that already exists (crosses fingers)?
Cheers,

Hello,
Just a quick question. I've seen several fields where it's desireable
to model a scheduled event and then represent it in some form (XML or
a simple string, usually).
For example, I'd want to model and express:
- "Every Tueday at 6pm"
- "The first Monday of the month at noon"
- "Every other day at midnight"
Possible uses include for HTTP cache freshness, recurring events in
RSS news feeds, and policy updates for things like P3P. In general,
I'm talking about representing a publication schedule.
Does calsch have a solution for this, or any thoughts that would
point an effort to develop such a thing in the right direction?
Cheers,
