Subject: [ietf-calsify] matching up CUTYPE to vCard KIND

Hi,
   In trying to build a schema for representing resources we decided to re-use the vCard KIND property to specify the type of the resource. In iCal, one would add a resource to an event by inviting it as an Attendee. One can set the CUTYPE parameter to define what type of attendee it is. iCal defines INDIVIDUAL, GROUP, RESOURCE, ROOM & UNKNOWN. KIND in vCard takes the values individual, group, org, location & thing. While individual and group map exactly, the rest don't. Is it fair to say RESOURCE could map to thing? ROOM and location are related but not exactly the same. Not sure if the org vCard KIND value makes sense for iCal CUTYPE.
  Can we try to reconcile the two values? Wanted to get the opinion of this group before asking the vCard list.

Thanks,
Ciny
