Calendaring is already cover by a full set of RFCs:

RFC 2445, Internet Calendaring and Scheduling Core Object Specification 
(iCalendar)

RFC 2446, iCalendar Transport-Independent Interoperability Protocol 
(iTIP): Scheduling Events, BusyTime, To-dos and Journal Entries

RFC 2447, iCalendar Message-based Interoperability Protocol (iMIP)

http://www.imc.org/pdi/

No point of reinventing the wheel. A nice implementation is still 
lacking though.
