Abstract

   When scheduling a calendar entity, such as an event, it is a
   prerequisite that an organizer has the calendar address of each
   attendee that will be invited to the event. Additionally, access to
   an attendee's current "busy time" provides an a priori indication of
   whether the attendee will be free to participate in the event.

   In order to meet these challenges, a calendar user agent (CUA) needs
   a mechanism to locate (URI) individual user's calendar and free/busy
   time.

   This memo defines three mechanisms for obtaining a URI to a user's
   calendar and free/busy time. These include:

   - Manual transfer of the information;

   - Personal data exchange using the vCard format; and

   - Directory lookup using the LDAP protocol.

1  Calendaring and Scheduling URIs

   This memo defines four classes of URIs. URIs are more useful if it is
   understood what the URIs point to. Here is a brief description:

1.1 Free/Busy URI (FBURL)

   The free/busy URI is defined to be a transport independent location
   where a client can obtain information about when a user is busy. At
   the present time, this URI only points to busy time data. Future
   revisions of this specification may provide for the extended
   capability of publishing free time data.

   If a calendaring and scheduling client (i.e., CUA) were to retrieve
   data from this location using FTP or HTTP, it would get back an
   iCalendar object [4] containing one or more "VFREEBUSY" calendar
   components. If a MIME transport is being used, the response will be
   contained within a "text/calendar" MIME body part as specified in the
   iCalendar specification [4]. For example:

      BEGIN:VCALENDAR
      VERSION:2.0
      PRODID:-//hacksw/handcal//NONSGML v1.0//EN
      METHOD:PUBLISH
      BEGIN:VFREEBUSY
      ATTENDEE:MAILTO:jane_doe@host1.com
      DTSTART:19971013T050000Z
      DTEND:19971124T050000Z
      DTSTAMP:19970901T083000Z
      FREEBUSY:19971015T133000Z/19971015T180000Z
      FREEBUSY:19971015T190000Z/19971015T220000Z
      FBURL:http://www.host.com/calendar/busy/jdoe.ifb
      END:VFREEBUSY
      END:VCALENDAR

   The amount of busy time data pointed to by the FBURL will generally
   be pre-determined; for example one month of busy time data. As a
   guideline, it is recommended that the previous six weeks of busy time
   data be published at the location associated with the FBURL. If this
   URI points to a file resource, it is recommended that the file
   extension be "ifb" to distinguish it from an arbitrary iCalendar
   object (e.g., with the "ics" file extension).

1.2 Calendar Access URI (CAPURI)

   The Calendar Access URI is defined to be a protocol independent
   location from which a calendaring and scheduling client (i.e., CUA)
   can communicate with a user's entire calendar.

   The semantics for using this URI as an access protocol locator are
   yet to be defined by the IETF CALSCH Working Group. This will be
   addressed in the "Calendar Access Protocol" specification.

1.3 Calendar URI (CALURI)

   The Calendar URI is defined to be a protocol independent location
   from which a calendaring and scheduling client (i.e. CUA) can
   retrieve an entire copy of a user's calendar. Retrieving data from
   this URI obtains a published "snapshot" of the user's calendar.

   HTTP URI -- If the URI is an HTTP URI, then the content returned with
   a GET should be a "text/calendar" MIME body part containing one or
   more iCalendar object.

   FTP URI -- If the URI is an FTP URI, then the resource pointed to
   should be a file with an "ics" file extension containing one or more
   iCalendar objects.

1.4 Default URIs

   There are many cases where a user may have more than one calendar. In
   these cases, a user may have multiple URIs, each URI pointing to a
   calendar or free/busy data.

   To make the case of multiple calendars simpler for clients, the
   concept of the "default" calendar is introduced. A "default" calendar
   is one that the user has designated as the calendar that other users
   should look at when accessing the user's calendar, or retrieving the
   user's free/busy time.

   The default calendar may, in fact, include rolled-up information from
   all the user's other calendars. The other calendars may only exist
   for organizational purposes.

2  Distribution

   These four URIs provide valuable pointers to calendaring and
   scheduling data that other users need in order to know when to
   schedule meetings, etc. There are several possibilities on how users
   can communicate these URIs to other users. The following section
   outlines how these URIs can be distributed to other users.

2.1 Manual Transfer

   The simplest way to obtain these URIs is for a user to communicate
   the URIs using some out-of-band mechanism such as verbally, or in an
   e-mail message, or by printing these URIs on a paper business card.

   When using this mechanism, the user obtains these URIs using an out-
   of-band mechanism and then enters these URIs into their calendaring
   software manually.

2.2 Personal Data Exchange Using A vCard

   A more sophisticated way to obtain these URIs is for users to publish
   vCards containing these URIs. The vCard object can be transferred
   between one another. Since many e-mail clients allow a user to
   automatically include a vCard with every message that the user sends,
   this provides a simple, transparent way for a user to distribute
   their calendaring and scheduling URIs.

   On the receiving end, an e-mail client that provides an integrated
   vCard database can provide a way to lookup calendaring URIs for users
   whose vCards are stored locally.

2.3 vCard Schema Extensions

   Since the vCard [3] specification doesn't specify how to encode
   calendaring URIs in a vCard, this section is provided as an extension
   to vCard which specifies how to encode calendaring URIs within a
   vCard.

   Inside a vCard object, four new properties are defined: "CALURI",
   "CAPURI", "CALADRURI", and "FBURL", as defined above.

   Any vCard can have one or more of these properties, each representing
   a calendar or free/busy time that is associated with the user.

   One of these properties can be designated as the "default" by adding
   the "PREF" parameter.

   Here is a simple example of a vCard containing a "FBURL" and a
   "CALURI".

2.4 Directory Lookup Using The LDAP v3 Protocol Another way to obtain these URIs is to look them up in a directory using the LDAP protocol [1]. If a user's URIs can be found using directory lookup (i.e., searching for one of the LDAP schema extensions defined below), they should, in general, be considered "more up-to-date" than URIs in any vCards that are stored locally. 2.4.1 LDAP Schema Extensions In order to encode the calendaring URIs in the directory, the following are defined: - One object class: - calEntry - Eight attributes: - calCalURI - calFBURL - calCAPURI - calCalAdrURI - calOtherCalURIs - calOtherFBURLs - calOtherCAPURIs - calOtherCalAdrURIs The calCalURI contains the URI to a snapshot of the user's entire default calendar. The calFBURL contains the URI to the user's default busy time data. The calCAPURI represents contains a URI that can be used to communicate with the user's calendar. The calCalAdrURI contains a URI that points to the location to which event requests should be sent for that user. The calOtherCalURIs is a multi-valued property containing URIs to snapshots of other calendars that the user may have. The calOtherFBURLs is a multi-valued property containing URIs to other free/busy data that the user may have. The calOtherCAPURIs attribute is a multi-valued property containing URIs to other calendars that the user may have. The calOtherCalAdrURIs attribute is a multi-valued property containing URIs to other locations that a user may want event requests sent to. There is no predetermined order to the values in either multi-valued property. 2.4.2 Notation The notation used in this memo is the same as that used in [2]. 2.4.3 Object Definitions 2.4.3.1 calEntry The Calendar Entry is a class derived from "TOP" [2], which contains the four calendaring attributes.

IANA registration proposals for vCard are to be emailed to the registration agent for the "text/directory" MIME content-type, <MAILTO: ietf-mime-directory@imc.org> using the format defined in [3]. 4 Security Considerations Standard vCard and LDAP security rules and support apply for the extensions described in this document, and there are no special security issues for these extensions. Please note, though, that LDAP servers may permit anonymous clients to refresh entries which they did not create. Servers are also permitted to control a refresh access to an entry by requiring clients to bind before issuing a RefreshRequest. This will have implications on the server performance and scalability. Please also note, though, that vCard objects may have been created by an entity other than that represented by the vCard. Recipients should be certain of the source that generated the vCard. Also, care should be taken in making use of information obtained from directory servers that has been supplied by client, as it may now be out of date. In many networks, for example, IP addresses are automatically assigned when a host connects to the network, and may be reassigned if that host later disconnects. An IP address obtained from the directory may no longer be assigned to the host that placed the address in the directory. This issue is not specific to LDAP or dynamic directories. 5 Acknowledgments The authors wish to acknowledge the work of Alec Dun, who acted as an author for the early drafts of this memo.
