CalWS-REST and CalWS-SOAP

"We need to (finally) provide platform and system-independent calendaring and scheduling operations APIs for web services - it’s long past time"

Calendaring (and scheduling) should be available as a service on any platform with a calendaring system installed, much like middleware. To make this work and expose the calendaring system to other applications, widgets, and so forth, we need a platform-independent and system-independent API for calendaring operations. CalWS-REST and CalS-SOAP provide both RESTful and SOAPy web service implementations of this API. The work is being done in partnership with OASIS.
