1. Report

The CalConnect interoperability event was hosted by Ribose and OGCIO at Cyberport in Hong Kong on April 18 and 19, 2016.

The event at HongKong continued our move to a more forum like approach, combining testing of new and standard calendar features with a number of in-depth discussions.

The following organizations were attending

• dmfs GmbH (formerly SmoothSync)

• FastMail

• Fruux

• Google

• Open-change

• Philipp Gewischt

• Ribose

• Spherical Cow Group

A major topic for this event — as for the last one — is trying to make iMip more reliable. In some cases it is the representation of the data which is the issue, other times it is incorrect handling of iTip.

Another topic which keeps coming back is dealing with differing interpretations of the iCalendar specification regarding recurrences.
