A note regarding XSL and xCalendar




It just occurred to me that I implied that using XSLT to transform to iCalendar is required by my draft.


Actually, what is intended to be required is the inclusion of a reference to a stylesheet, and by implication the stylesheet itself, that can do such a transformation. Nothing requires an application to use the transformation. Maybe the wording can be improved - but the intent is, IF you are going to publish your calendar information in XML, then you MUST provide a stylesheet so that others MAY use XSLT to transform to iCalendar if that is the end result that they want. It's the XML developer's responsibility to provide the stylesheet since they know their document and their DTD/Schema if used.
