Re: Are there any Semantic Web projects for university calendars? (fwd)

Hi Stephen,

You might want to look at www-rdf-calendar@w3.org archives
(http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-calendar/) and the Semantic
Web advanced Development Activity (SWAD) at W3C, which has several
links: http://www.w3.org/2000/01/sw/ - see the calendaring and
scheduling section. 

I'm the contact for the RDF calendar taskforce has been working on an
RDF version of iCalendar - a very draft schema is at
http://ilrt.org/discovery/2001/06/schemas/ical-full/hybrid.rdf, and the
taskforce homepage is at http://ilrt.org/discovery/2001/04/calendar/.

hope this helps - let me know how you get on

Libby Miller
