The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Support for iCalendar Relationships' (draft-ietf-calext-ical-relations-11.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Calendaring Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Murray Kucherawy and Francesca Palombini. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-calext-ical-relations/ Technical Summary This spec extends the iCalendar format (RFC5545) to add new properties (LINK, CONCEPT and REFID) to allow better linking and grouping of related iCalendar records. Working Group Summary This document has been around for a long time and been through multiple revisions and discussions since it was first proposed in 2013, and first accepted by this working group in 2016. The main delay has been my (Bron, document Shepherd) fault, as it's had multiple working group last calls, and then I've just not gotten around to submitting it until the document expired. Blame 2020. Document Quality The extensions to iCalendar are all very easy to understand and to implement. The concepts in this document have already been implemented in the jscalendar format (RFC8984) - though there is not need to cross-reference them, as that will be done in a separate mapping document between the two protocols, which is still being finalised, and will reference both this docuement and that one (draft-ietf-calext-jscalendar-icalendar).
