Hi,

I want to bring your attention to a document by the Internet Engineering Task 
Force (IETF) Calendaring and Scheduling (CALSCH) Working Group.

http://www.calsch.org/ietf/archives/draft-ietf-calsch-many-xcal-02.html 
(expired, there should also be a more recent version)

This document includes a DTD for representing RFC 2445 data in XML.

There is also a mailing list about xml based calendaring from this working 
group.

http://inet-consulting.com/xcal-dev/threads.html

Please seriously consider to reuse substantial definitions from this document. 
(Especially the naming)

In addition
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-hare-xcalendar-00.txt is a _current_ 
document.

"   This memo defines how XML can be used to represent iCalendar
   objects,and how	iCalendar namespaces can be used with other XML
   documents.  An example DTD is	provided although use of a DTD is not
   required.

   This memo does not try to enforce any specific one-to-one mapping
   between XML	objects and iCalendar objects, but instead attempts to
   document the method	whereby XML developers can provide
   interoperability with iCalendar."

Regards,
