“There are significant challenges in mobile calendaring today,” said Dave Thewlis, CalConnect’s Executive Director. “The synchronisation protocols used to ‘sync’ mobile device data are not sensitive to the validity of the data, only the data were transmitted successfully. As a result, regular synchronisation testing cannot detect or resolve application-level errors. CalConnect’s Mobile Calendar Interoperability Test Suite has been developed to simplify testing of the real calendar data, and the capabilities of different mobile devices. It will test what calendaring data the mobile devices receive and deliver data to the user.”

As a key member of the CalConnect Consortium, Kerio leads the global SMB market with its CalDAV implementation in Kerio MailServer, a cross-platform email and collaboration server. For more information, please visit: www.kerio.com/kms.

Participation is open to non-members as well as members of CalConnect. To register for the interoperability testing event, please contact Dave Thewlis (dave.thewlis@calconnect.org) or Chris Dudding (chris.dudding@symbian.com).

CalConnect will also hold a regular (non-mobile) interoperability test event as an adjunct to its Roundtable members’ meeting on October 6-10, 2008 at Yahoo! in Sunnyvale, California. Non-members wishing to participate or observe should contact Dave Thewlis. More details on the event can be found at the CalConnect website beginning in early August.
