Yoz Grahame's Unresolvable Discrepancy

I came here to apologise and eat biscuits, and I'm all out of biscuits

iCal(endar)

Posted: July 21st, 2002 Comments Off

I guess a name-collision was inevitable, but it would have helped if Apple had made
some admission that their new calendar app,
iCal, is intruding on the namespace
of the IETF’s iCalendar effort. (And
they’re not even the first to
pick the shortened form
) Furthermore, Apple’s
iCal page makes little mention of supporting
the IETF standard, though I’ve heard it on good authority (a.k.a.
my chum Ian, who edits MacUser UK) that
iCalendar is supported. But href="http://www.imc.org/ietf-calendar/index.html">which bits?
Wes and the gang have been
making guesses.
