+CalConnect held its fourteenth members  meeting (Roundtable) and interoperability test event last week (February 2-6) in Redmond, Washington, hosted by Microsoft.
+
+We have just started a Guest Speaker program, and our first Guest Speaker was Ben Fortuna, the author of http://wiki.modularity.net.au/ical4j/index.php?title=Main_Page[iCal4j]. (iCal4j is a Java API providing support for the iCalendar specification, RFC 2445, which defines the data schema for calendaring information.)
+
+Ben is from Melbourne, Australia, and came all the way to Redmond to be with us for the week, and to speak on iCal4j. You can find his presentation to CalConnect at link:{{'/docs/iCal4j_Calconnect.pdf' | relative_url}}[iCal4j_Calconnect.pdf]. We re delighted Ben was able to be with us.

+
+This blog is for and about link:{{'/' | relative_url}}[CalConnect]  The Calendaring and Scheduling Consortium  and occasional other posts related to the quest for interoperable calendaring and scheduling.
+
+I m Dave Thewlis, the Executive Director of CalConnect. I hope to use this blog to keep interested folks apprised of what s going on with CalConnect in a timely fashion, and so it will be prone to œannouncements.  But I ll try to keep it from being too dry and uninteresting.
+
+For those who aren t familiar with CalConnect, it is a very collegial partnership between vendors, implementers, and customers of calendaring and scheduling systems.
+
+Our purpose is to promote interoperable calendaring and scheduling. Our vision for the future is not just interoperable calendaring, but ubiquitous interoperable calendaring: Calendaring can be, and should be, as available, easy to use, and ubiquitous as electronic mail.
