Justification for the specific reference:
|
|
|
IETF RFC 6351 (2011) defines xCard,an XML representation for vCard. The underlying data structure is exactly the same, enabling a 1-to-1 mapping between the original vCard format and the XML representation. The XML formatting may be preferred in some contexts where an XML engine is readily available and may be reused instead of writing a standalone vCard parser. ITU-T F.746.2 refers to this specification for the contacts data XML formats definition.
