(There is no need to include this in the specification.)
Type name: application Subtype name: calendar+xml Required parameters: none Optional parameters: charset, method, component and optinfo as defined for the text/calendar media type Encoding considerations: iCalendar data is typically UTF-8 and thus the XML representation will follow that. As a result, for 7-bit transports, data in UTF-8 MUST be encoded in quoted-printable or base64.
As per RFC 3023, these should be stated as "Same as [charset parameter / encoding considerations] of text/xml as specified in RFC 3023."
Security considerations: This extension does not introduce any new security concerns than those already described in iCalendar (RFC5545).
This should then also reference the security considerations for the type application/xml as defined in RFC 3023.
Interoperability considerations: This media type provides an alternative syntax to iCalendar data based on XML. Published specification: This specification. (http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-daboo-et-al-icalendar-in-xml-06.txt) Applications which use this media type: Applications that currently make use of the text/calendar media type can use this as an alternative. Additional information: Magic number(s): None File extension(s): XML data should use "xml" as the file extension.
This should just say ".xml". I note that using .xml for this type prevents typical file extension -> media type mappings which would be an issue for instance if you expect that people will just throw files of this type on their web server.
Macintosh file type code(s): None specified. Person & email address to contact for further information: Steven Lees EMail: steven.lees@microsoft.com

Intended usage: COMMON Restrictions on usage: There are no restrictions on where this media type can be used. Author: Cyrus Daboo EMail: cyrus@daboo.name Mike Douglass EMail: douglm@rpi.edu<mailto:douglm@rpi.edu> Steven Lees EMail: steven.lees@microsoft.com
