[uf-dev] ATTENDEE encodings

Today i got the following email about X2V not being about to extract
ATTENDEE information. This is something that has never been fully
flushed out by the community, same goes for AGENT.

There was a reason why this was so tricky, but i can't seem to remember
why now. Maybe we have solved most of the problems with the ABBR and
title encoding.

I just wanted to pass this along to keep it on the radar.

Hi Brian,

I've just realized that your xslt stylesheet does not cope correctly
with sub-properties like that:

<span class="attendee">
<abbr class="role" title="req-participant">Required participant</abbr>:
<a class="cn" href="mailto:abramobagnara at tin.it">Abramo Bagnara</span>
</span>

to generate:
ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;CN=Abramo Bagnara:MAILTO:abramobagnara at tin.it

I've also verified that similar vcard construct are taken in account by
xhtml2vcard.xsl

Is this behaviour wanted?

I interpret correctly hCalendar specification that that above is the
correct way to represent that iCalendar data?

Thanks you in advance for your answer.
