Guidance

RFC 5545 is required in order to allow a vendor independent representation and exchange of calendaring and scheduling information such as events, to-dos, journal entries, and free/busy information, independent of any particular calendar service or protocol.

RFC 5546 defines the scheduling methods that permit two or more calendaring systems to perform transactions such as publishing, scheduling, rescheduling, responding to scheduling requests, negotiating changes, or canceling.

RFC 6047 defines how calendaring entries defined by the iCalendar Object Model (iCalendar) are wrapped and transported over SMTP. Authentication, Authorization and Confidentiality with S/MIME (section 2.2 of RFC 6047) is not applicable for this profile.
