| == Introduction ==
| |
| This effort came about as a result of the need for a human and machine readable markup format that can be used to define the operating hours of establishments.
| |
| | |
| Stores, businesses, etc. often provide their operating hours on their websites. With the addition of a small bit of markup, they are able to define their operating hours on their websites in such a way that spiders and other aggregators can retrieve such hours, automatically convert them to the iCalendar format, and use this data in any iCalendar application or service.
