I agree. This WG needs to finish up. It has absorbed too many tasks that
conflict with each other. Many get upset when more than one task is
performed at a time and that is holding up individual submissions and other
ideas. I have been repeatedly asked NOT to submit the XML draft until 
after CAP.
Lets ship CAP and allow iCal to move forward.

In addition separate working groups can then focus on  specific tasks.

I do not think that RFC02445-7 have significant changes. They do however
have many typo's and a few corrections.
