Re: xCalendar draft revision submitted

apples and oranges

I used the drafty XML version of xCal to come up with the XSLT that 
Mozilla and others have used. I had XSLT that could translate to iCal to 
make sure I had good stuff. The XML was nice for building web pages etc.

Worked great.

Good luck Tim. A standard for calendar data expressed in XML is a good 
thing and could be used all over the place.
