    There are some of issues to be resolved:
    
    The XML schema for iCalendar needs some further work. In it's original 
    form it is unsuitable for use in XML frameworks such as JAXB. Some work 
    has already taken place to address that.
    
    More work may need to  be done to improve the extensibility of the 
    schema and to allow it to handle some constructs. There's a question as 
    to whether the schema shoudl allow for the round-tripping of data at 
    least one end of the connection does not understand, e.g. new calendar 
    properties or x-properties.
    
    The CalWS protocol as specified is a RESTful protocol. An extension to 
    that protocol will be needed to provide definitions and schemas for SOAP 
    based services.
