thanks for sending this Vinar. the ical:url proposal is interesting. RFC 2445 says [[ 4.8.4.6 Uniform Resource Locator Property Name: URL Purpose: This property defines a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) associated with the iCalendar object. ... Description: This property may be used in a calendar component to convey a location where a more dynamic rendition of the calendar information associated with the calendar component can be found. ]] so that's actually more like your seealso property - i.e. a more up to date version (as I interpret it anyway). I think the uid is important, as it allows you to point to a specific event (not a calendar) and many events will not necessarily have a homepage. However this only works if there is already an event description with a url somewhere that's 'authoritiative' somehow. There may not be such a thing, or you might create one first and then the conference does, so you might get people linking to yours and not the conference's one, and so on. I think combining foaf and RDFical is well worth persuing though I'm not sure what the right answer is. see also: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-calendar/2003Jun/0011.html Libby On Mon, 29 Sep 2003, Vinay Pawar wrote: > > Hi, > > At #rdfig we were trying to find out a way to link to > a particular event from a FOAF file.
