(This information has been prepared jointly by Ronan Klyne and myself.)

The work so far

The existing schema at http://www.w3.org/2002/12/cal/ical defines the following classes and properties:

Not defined, but present (with different spelling) in the hybrid schema are:

There is nothing in the new schema to relate a Vcalendar to a Vevent (ala VEVENT-PROP in the hybrid schema).

There is nothing in the new schema to represent a time without a date.

Our proposal

We propose to use:

Vtimeentry - superclass for all date and/or time values

The sample data Users.n3 uses the following ical vocabulary (look to the end of the file for schedule details):

In keeping with the original hybrid scheme data, this test data uses rdf:value to designate date/time literal strings. Is this a good idea, givem the semantic uncertainty surrounding this property?
