Introduction The JSContact [I-D.ietf-calext-jscontact] format aims to be an alternative to the vCard [RFC6350] format for representation of contact and address book data. As such, it introduces new semantics that are not covered in the current definition of vCard and its various extensions. Converting contact data between the two formats is defined in [I-D.ietf-calext-jscontact-vcard] with the goal of not losing any semantics during conversion. To do so, this document defines a new set of properties for vCard and extends existing definitions. 1.1. Notational Conventions The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. 1.2. ABNF Notations The ABNF definitions in this document use the notations of [RFC5234]. ABNF rules not defined in this document either are defined in [RFC5234] (such as the ABNF for CRLF, WSP, DQUOTE, VCHAR, ALPHA, and DIGIT) or [RFC6350]. 2. Updated Properties 2.1. ADR This specification modifies the definition of the "ADR" property. It extends its structured value with additional address components to better support the variety of international addresses. It separates the address parts that currently typically are combined in street address component values into distinct components. Implementations SHOULD write a combined value of these components in the street address component for backwards compatibility, but SHOULD ignore the street component during read if the ADR property value contains any of the new components. Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 3] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 The following change is made to the first paragraph in the "Special Notes" section, originally specified in Section 6.3.1 of [RFC6350]. All remaining paragraphs of that section in the original specification still apply. Special notes: The structured type value consists of a sequence of address components. The component values MUST be specified in their corresponding position. The structured type value corresponds, in sequence, to the post office box; the extended address (e.g., apartment or suite number); the street address; the locality (e.g., city); the region (e.g., state or province); the postal code; the country name (full name in the language specified in Section 5.1 of [RFC6350]); the room or suite number or identifier the apartment number, extension designation or box number. the building floor or level; the street number; the street name; the building, tower, condominium; the block name or number; the subdistrict; the district; the landmark or another publicly known prominent feature that can substitute the street name and number, e.g., "White House"", "Taj Mahal""; the cardinal direction or quadrant, e.g., "North" The following change is made to the definition of "ADR-value" in the "ABNF" section, originally specified in Section 6.3.1 of [RFC6350]. ABNF ADR-value = ADR-component-pobox ";" ADR-component-ext ";" ADR-component-street ";" ADR-component-locality ";" ADR-component-region ";" ADR-component-code ";" ADR-component-country ";" ; above components are defined in RFC 6350, section 6.3.1 ADR-component-room ";" ADR-component-apartment ";" ADR-component-floor ";" ADR-component-streetnumber ";" ADR-component-streetname ";" ADR-component-building ";" ADR-component-block ";" ADR-component-subdistrict ";" ADR-component-district ";" ADR-component-landmark ";" ADR-component-direction ADR-component-pobox = list-component ADR-component-ext = list-component Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 4] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 ADR-component-street = list-component ADR-component-locality = list-component ADR-component-region = list-component ADR-component-code = list-component ADR-component-country = list-component ADR-component-room = list-component ADR-component-apartment = list-component ADR-component-floor = list-component ADR-component-streetnumber = list-component ADR-component-streetname = list-component ADR-component-building = list-component ADR-component-block = list-component ADR-component-subdistrict = list-component ADR-component-district = list-component ADR-component-landmark = list-component ADR-component-direction = list-component The following change is made to the "Example" section, originally specified in Section 6.2.2 of [RFC6350]. Example: In this example, the post office box and the extended address components are absent. The street number and name are added both as separate components, as well as combined in the street component for backwards-compatibility. ADR;GEO="geo:12.3457,78.910": ;;123 Main Street;Any Town;CA;91921-1234;U.S.A.;;123;Main Street;;;;;;; 2.2. N This specification modifies the definition of the "N" property. It extends its structured value with additional name components to better support international names and generation markers. Doing so, this also facilitates formatting N property values using the Unicode CLDR Person Name [CLDRPersonName] formatting standard. One new component is for secondary surnames, as in some cultures, such secondary surname kinds are used to indicate the paternal and maternal family names or generational names indicating father, grandfather. Another new component indicates a generation ("II", "XVI") or parental relation ("Jr.", "Sr."). Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 5] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 Currently, implementations typically place secondary surnames in the family name components, and generational markers in the honorific suffixes component. For backwards compatibility, implementations SHOULD add such values to both the newly defined components and their backwards-compatible counterpart. Reading N property values, implementations SHOULD ignore any value in the backward-compatible component if an equal value is set in the according new component. For example, a "Jr." that occurs in both honorific suffixes and generation should only be handled as a generational marker. The following change is made to the first paragraph in the "Special Notes" section, originally specified in Section 6.2.2 of [RFC6350]. All remaining text of this and the following paragraphs of that section in the original specification still apply. Special notes: The structured property value corresponds, in sequence, to the family names (also known as surnames), given names, additional names, honorific prefixes, honorific suffixes, secondary surname, and generation. The following change is made to the "ABNF" section, originally specified in Section 6.2.2 of [RFC6350]. ABNF N-param = "VALUE=text" / sort-as-param / language-param / altid-param / any-param N-value = list-component 6(";" list-component) The following change is made to the "Example" section, originally specified in Section 6.2.2 of [RFC6350]. Example N:Public;John;Quinlan;Mr.;Esq. N:Stevenson;John;Philip,Paul;Dr.;Jr.,M.D.,A.C.P.;;Jr. No change is required for the definition of the SORT-AS parameter, but the new components also apply for use with this parameter. 3. New Properties Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 6] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 3.1. CREATED Property name: CREATED Purpose: This property defines the date and time when the vCard was created Value type: A single timestamp value. Cardinality: *1 Property parameters: VALUE Description: This is the time stamp when the vCard was created. Copying the vCard across systems does not count as a new creation, nor does a new revision. Instead, the time stamp value typically stays unchanged for the existence of the vCard. Format definition: This property is defined by the following notation: created = "CREATED" createdparam ":" timestamp createdparam = *( ; ; The following are OPTIONAL, ; but MUST NOT occur more than once. ; (";" "VALUE" "=" "timestamp") / ; ; The following are OPTIONAL, ; and MAY occur more than once. ; (";" any-param) ; ) Example(s): CREATED:20220705T093412Z CREATED;VALUE=TIMESTAMP:20211022T140000-05 3.2. GRAMGENDER Property name: GRAMGENDER Purpose: This property defines which grammatical gender to use in salutations and other grammatical constructs. Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 7] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 Value type: A single text value, restricted to an enumerated list of allowed values. Cardinality: * Property parameters: LANG Description: This property defines the grammatical gender that the contact prefers to be addressed by or referred at in written or spoken form. For example, the German language distinguishes by grammatical gender in salutations such as "Sehr geehrte" (feminine) and "Sehr geehrter" (masculine). Multiple occurrences of this property MUST be distinguished by the LANG parameter. Format definition: This property is defined by the following notation: gramgender = "GRAMGENDER" gramgender-param ":" gramgender-value gramgender-param = *( ; ; The following are OPTIONAL, ; but MUST NOT occur more than once. ; (";" language-param) / ; ; The following are OPTIONAL, ; and MAY occur more than once. ; (";" any-param) ; ) gramgender-value = "animate" / "common" / "feminine" / "inanimate" / "masculine" / "neuter" / iana-token / x-name Example(s): GRAMGENDER:neuter Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 8] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 3.3. LANGUAGE Property name: LANGUAGE Purpose: This property defines the default language that human- readable text values in this vCard should be assumed written in. Value type: A single Language-Tag value as defined in Section 4 of [RFC6350]. Cardinality: *1 Property parameters: The LANGUAGE parameter MUST NOT be assigned to this property. Description: This property defines the language in which property values of type TEXT shall be assumed to be written for this vCard. If a vCard property includes the LANGUAGE parameter, then the parameter value has higher precedence than the LANGUAGE property value. Format definition: This property is defined by the following notation: language-prop = "LANGUAGE" any-param ":" Language-Tag ; Language-Tag is defined in RFC6350, Section 4. Example(s): LANGUAGE:de-AT 3.4. PRONOUNS Property name: PRONOUNS Purpose: This property defines the pronouns that shall be used to refer to the entity represented by this vCard. Value type: A single text value. Cardinality: * Property parameters: LANG, PREF, TYPE Description: This property contains the pronouns that the contact chooses to use for themselves. The value is free-form text. These pronouns shall be used when addressing or referring to the contact. Multiple occurrences of this property MAY define pronouns for multiple languages, preferences and contexts. Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 9] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 Multiple pronouns in the same language SHOULD use the PREF parameter, otherwise, the order of preference is implementation- specific. Format definition: This property is defined by the following notation: pronouns = "PRONOUNS" pronouns-param ":" text pronouns-param = *( ; ; The following are OPTIONAL, ; but MUST NOT occur more than once. ; (";" language-param) / (";" pref-param) / (";" type-param) / (";" altid-param) / ; ; The following are OPTIONAL, ; and MAY occur more than once. ; (";" any-param) ; ) Example(s): PRONOUNS;LANG=en;PREF=1:xe/xir PRONOUNS;LANG=en;PREF=2:they/them 3.5. SOCIALPROFILE Property name: SOCIALPROFILE Purpose: To specify the URI or username for social media profiles associated with the object the vCard represents. Value type: A single URI or TEXT value. The default value type is URI. Cardinality: * Property parameters: The SERVICE-TYPE parameter MUST be assigned to this property if the value type is TEXT, it MAY be assigned if the value type is URI. In either case, it MUST NOT be assigned more than once. Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 10] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 Description: Several vCard address book implementations currently use an experimental X-SOCIALPROFILE property to store social media profiles for contacts. This specification provides an IANA- registered property for the same purpose. In addition to the typical use of this property with URI values, it also allows setting usernames for social media services as free-text TEXT values, in which case the service name MUST be provided as a parameter. Names MUST be considered equal if they match case- insensitively. Format definition: This property is defined by the following notation: socialpr = "SOCIALPROFILE" socialpr-param ":" socialpr-value socialpr-param = "VALUE=uri" / "VALUE=text" / service-type-param / any-param socialpr-value = URI / text Example(s): SOCIALPROFILE;SERVICE-TYPE=Mastodon:https://example.com/@foo SOCIALPROFILE:https://example.com/ietf SOCIALPROFILE;SERVICE-TYPE=SomeSite;VALUE=text:peter94 4. New Parameters 4.1. AUTHOR Parameter name: AUTHOR Purpose: This parameter identifies the author of the associated property value. Description: This parameter MAY be set on any property where conveying authorship is desired. It identifies the author as a URI [RFC3986]. Since every valid URI includes the COLON (U+003A) character, the parameter value MUST be quoted. Note that as an alternative or in addition to this parameter, the AUTHOR-NAME parameter allows naming an author as free-text value (see Section 4.2). Format definition: author-param = "AUTHOR" "=" DQUOTE URI DQUOTE Example(s): NOTE;AUTHOR="mailto:john@example.com":This is some note. Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 11] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 4.2. AUTHOR-NAME Parameter name: AUTHOR-NAME Purpose: This parameter names the author of the associated property value. Description: This parameter MAY be set on any property where conveying authorship is desired. It names the author as a free- text value. The parameter value MUST NOT be empty. Implementations MUST take care to quote the name part, if otherwise the part would not be a valid param-value (see Section 3.3 of [RFC6350]). Note that as an alternative or in addition to this parameter, the AUTHOR parameter allows identifying an author by URI (see Section 4.1). Format definition: author-name-param = "AUTHOR-NAME" "=" param-value ; not empty Example(s): NOTE;AUTHOR-NAME=John Doe:This is some note. NOTE;AUTHOR-NAME="_:l33tHckr:_":A note by an unusual author name. 4.3. CREATED Parameter name: CREATED Purpose: This parameter defines the date and time when a property was created in a vCard. Description: This parameter MAY be set on any property to define the point in time when the property was created. The value MUST be a valid TIMESTAMP value as defined in Section 4.3.5 of [RFC6350]. Generally, updating a property value SHOULD NOT change the creation timestamp. Format definition: created-param = "CREATED" "=" param-value ; ; a valid TIMESTAMP of Section 4.3.5 of [RFC6350] Example(s): NOTE;CREATED=20221122T151823Z:This is some note. 4.4. DERIVED Parameter name: DERIVED Purpose: This parameter specifies that the value of the associated Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 12] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 property is derived from some other property values in the same vCard. Description: This property parameter SHOULD be specified on an property if the property value is derived from some other properties in the same vCard. When present with a value of true, clients MUST NOT update the property. For an example, an implementation may derive the value of the FN property from the name components of the N property. It indicates this fact by setting the DERIVED parameter on the FN property to true. Format definition: derived-param = "DERIVED" "=" ("true" / "false") ; Default is false Example(s): N:;John;Quinlan;Mr.; FN;DERIVED=TRUE:Mr. John Quinlan 4.5. LABEL Parameter name: LABEL Purpose: This parameter is used with the ADR property. Its value contains a formatted text representation of that address, e.g. for delivery. Description: Section 6.3.1 of [RFC6350] defines the ADR property, noting that the property can also include a LABEL parameter to present a delivery address label for the address. But this parameter was not included in the IANA Parameters Registry Section 10.3.2 of [RFC6350] and accordingly is not a registered standard vCard element. This specification defines and registers the LABEL parameter for use with the ADR property as originally intended. Format definition: label-param = "LABEL" "=" param-value Example(s): The LABEL parameter as illustrated the ADR property example in Section 6.3.1 of [RFC6350]. ADR;LABEL="Mr. John Q. Public, Esq.\nMail Drop: TNE QB\n123 Main Street\nAny Town, CA 91921-1234\nU.S.A.": ;;123 Main Street;Any Town;CA;91921-1234;U.S.A. Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 13] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 4.6. PHONETIC Parameter name: PHONETIC Purpose: This parameter defines how to pronounce the value of another property in the same vCard. Description: This property parameter indicates that the value of its property contains the phonetic representation of a same-named other property in the same vCard. Exemplary uses are to define how pronounce a Japanese name, or for romanization of Mandarin or Cantonese name and address components. The parameter value indicates the phonetic system and MUST be one of the values enumerated in the IANA vCard Parameter Values (Section 7.4) registry. This specification defines the following values: * ipa: denotes the International Phonetic Alphabet [IPA]. * piny: denotes the Standard Mandarin romanization system "Hanyu Pinyin". * jyut: denotes the Cantonese romanization system "Jyutping". * script: denotes the unknown phonetic system. The SCRIPT (Section 4.8) parameter MUST be set in addition to the PHONETIC parameter. The value type of the property on which the PHONETIC parameter is set MUST be of the same type as its related property. If a component value is set in the property on which the PHONETIC parameter is set, then a component value also MUST be set at that same position in the related property. On the other hand, not every component value in the related property needs to have a phonetic representation. The ALTID parameter (Section 5.4 of [RFC6350]) MUST be set with equal values on both the related property and the property having the PHONETIC parameter set. If more than one same-named property has both the PHONETIC parameter set and an equal ALTID parameter value, then at most one of these properties MAY not have the LANGUAGE parameter set and all others MUST have the LANGUAGE parameter set. The LANGUAGE parameters MUST NOT have equal values. The LANGUAGE parameter value SHOULD NOT contain a script subtag in its Language-Tag value and any such subtag MUST be ignored in favor of the SCRIPT (Section 4.8) parameter value. Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 14] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 This specification defines the PHONETIC parameter for use with the ADR and N properties. Format definition: phonetic-param = "PHONETIC=" phonetic-value phonetic-value = "ipa" / "piny" / "jyut" / "script" / iana-token / x-name Example(s): N;ALTID=1;LANGUAGE=zh-Hant:孫;中山;文,逸仙;;;; N;ALTID=1;PHONETIC=jyut; SCRIPT=Latn;LANGUAGE=yue:syun1;zung1saan1;man4,jat6sin1;;;; 4.7. PROP-ID Parameter name: PROP-ID Purpose: This parameter identifies a property among all its siblings of the same property name. Description: This parameter uniquely identifies a property among all of its siblings with the same name within a vCard. A valid PROP- ID value must be of 1 and a maximum of 255 octets in size, and it MUST only contain the ASCII alphanumeric characters (A-Za-z0-9), hyphen (-), and underscore (_). The identifier only has the purpose to uniquely identify siblings, its value has no other meaning. If an application makes use of PROP-ID it SHOULD assign a unique identifier to each sibling property of the same name within their embedding component. The same identifier MAY be used for properties of a different name, and it MAY also be assigned to a same-named property that is not a sibling. Resolving duplicate identifier conflicts is specific to the application. Similarly, handling properties where some but not all siblings have a PROP-ID is assigned, is application-specific. Format definition: prop-id-param = "PROP-ID" "=" 1*255(ALPHA / DIGIT / "-"/ "_") Example(s): PHOTO;PROP-ID=p827:data:image/jpeg;base64,MIICajCCAdOgAwIBAg <...remainder of base64-encoded data...> 4.8. SCRIPT Parameter name: SCRIPT Purpose: This parameter defines the script in which a property value Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 15] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 is written in. Description: This parameter allows defining a script for a property value without also defining a language as the LANGUAGE parameter would. The value MUST be a Script Subtag as defined in Section 2.2.3 of [RFC5646]. This specification makes use of the SCRIPT parameter in combination with the PHONETIC (Section 4.6) parameter. Format definition: script-param = 4ALPHA Example(s): SCRIPT=Latn 4.9. SERVICE-TYPE Parameter name: SERVICE-TYPE Purpose: To define the online service name associated with a messaging or social media profile. Description: This parameter MAY be specified on a IMPP or SOCIALPROFILE property to name the online service associated with that property value. Its value is case-sensitive, its letter cases MUST be preserved. Several vCard address book implementations currently use an experimental X-SERVICE-TYPE parameter. This specification provides an IANA-registered parameter for the same purpose. Format definition: service-type-param = "SERVICE-TYPE" "=" param-value Example(s): SOCIALPROFILE;SERVICE-TYPE=Mastodon:https://example.com/@foo 4.10. USERNAME Parameter name: USERNAME Purpose: To define a username, such as the user of a messaging or social media service. Description: This parameter MAY be specified on a IMPP or SOCIALPROFILE property to name the user with that property value. Its value is case-sensitive, its letter cases MUST be preserved. The IMPP or SOCIALPROFILE value type MUST be URI. Stepanek & Loffredo Expires 3 March 2024 [Page 16] Internet-Draft vCard JSContact Extensions August 2023 Format definition: username-param = "USERNAME" "=" param-value Example(s): SOCIALPROFILE;USERNAME="The Foo":https://example.com/@foo 5. New Values 5.1. Billing Address Type Value Value: billing Purpose: This indicates to use this address for billing, e.g., to send invoices to. Conformance: This value can be used with the "TYPE" parameter applied on the "ADR" property. Example(s): ADR;TYPE=billing:;;123 Main Street;Any Town;CA;91921-1234;U.S.A. 5.2. Delivery Address Type Value Value: delivery Purpose: This indicates to use this address for delivery, e.g., to send packages to. Conformance: This value can be used with the "TYPE" parameter applied on the "ADR" property. Example(s): ADR;TYPE=delivery:;;123 Main Street;Any Town;CA;91921-1234;U.S.A. 6. Security Considerations This specification extends the vCard Format Specification. The same security considerations as outlined in Section 9 of [RFC6350] apply. 7. IANA Considerations 7.1. Changes to the "vCard Properties" registry 7.1.1. New property definitions IANA is requested to add the following entries to the "vCard Properties" registry, defined in Section 10.3.1. of [RFC6350].
