Proposal for federated calendars via Matrix
2023-09-23, 16:15–16:35 (Europe/Berlin), Main Hall

Shared calendars suck. Existing technologies rely on users sharing the same calendar server/infrastructure (e.g. all users are on Google or use the same MS Exchange server). Matrix could be a good candidate to properly federate calendars among many users. We present our technical proposal for how to map calendars onto Matrix events. Feedback, questions and criticism from the audience is very much appreciated.
