3.1. CALSCALE-ADHOC

Presented a problem statement and our proposed approach. The draft is now at the IETF: Non-Gregorian Recurrence Rules in iCalendar. There was a discussion on RPATTERN vs RRULE, “L” suffix vs BYLEAPMONTH. The outcomes were:

  1. Give a call to all calendar services and clients to fail if they encounter unfamiliar term in RRULE

  2. Verify that no major client interprets RSCALE as a wrong recurrence (in Gregorian)

  3. Try to stick with RRULE and “L” suffix, pending discussion @IETF

  4. Keep discussion on calsify@ietf

  5. Have a one-off call after the Roundtable to determine further courses of action
