Abstract

   The Presence Information Data Format (PIDF) defines a basic format
   for representing presence information for a presentity.  This format
   defines a textual note, an indication of availability (open or
   closed) and a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for communication.
   The Rich Presence Information Data format (RPID) described here is an
   extension that adds optional elements to the Presence Information
   Data Format (PIDF).  These extensions provide additional information
   about the presentity and its contacts.  The information is designed
   so that much of it can be derived automatically, e.g., from calendar
   files or user activity.

   This extension includes information about what the person is doing, a
   grouping identifier for a tuple, when a service or device was last
   used, the type of place a person is in, what media communications
   might remain private, the relationship of a service tuple to another
   presentity, the person's mood, the time zone it is located in, the
   type of service it offers, an icon reflecting the presentity's
   status, and the overall role of the presentity.

   These extensions include presence information for persons, services
   (tuples), and devices.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-1" href="#section-1">1</a>.  Introduction</span>

   The Presence Information Data Format (PIDF) definition [<a href="#ref-8" title="&quot;Presence Information Data Format (PIDF)&quot;">8</a>] describes
   a basic presence information data format, encoded as an Extensible
   Markup Language (XML) [<a href="#ref-9" title="&quot;Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (Third Edition),&quot;">9</a>] (SCHEMA-1 [<a href="#ref-10" title="&quot;XML Schema Part 1: Structures Second Edition&quot;">10</a>]) (SCHEMA-2 [<a href="#ref-11" title="&quot;XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes Second Edition&quot;">11</a>]), for
   exchanging presence information in systems compliant with the common
   model for presence and instant messaging [<a href="#ref-5" title="&quot;A Model for Presence and Instant Messaging&quot;">5</a>].  It consists of a
   &lt;presence&gt; root element, zero or more &lt;tuple&gt; elements carrying
   presence information including a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)
   for communication, zero or more &lt;note&gt; elements, and zero or more
   extension elements from other name spaces.  Each tuple defines a
   basic status of either "open" or "closed".




<span class="grey">Schulzrinne, et al.         Standards Track                     [Page 2]</span></pre>

<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc4480">RFC 4480</a>                          RIPD                         July 2006</span>


   However, it is frequently useful to convey additional information
   about a user that needs to be interpreted by an automata, and is
   therefore not appropriate to be placed in the &lt;note&gt; element of the
   PIDF document, which is typically intended for the human observer.
   Therefore, this specification defines extensions to the PIDF document
   format for conveying richer presence information.  Generally, the
   extensions have been chosen to provide features common in existing
   presence systems at the time of writing, in addition to elements that
   could readily be derived automatically from existing sources of
   presence, such as calendaring systems or communication devices, or
   sources describing the user's current physical environment.

   The presence data model [<a href="#ref-16" title="&quot;A Data Model for Presence&quot;">16</a>] defines the concepts of service, device,
   and person as the data elements that are used to model the state of a
   presentity.  (The term "presentity" is defined in <a href="./rfc2778">RFC 2778</a> [<a href="#ref-5" title="&quot;A Model for Presence and Instant Messaging&quot;">5</a>] and
   abbreviates presence entity.  A presentity provides presence
   information to a presence service.)  Services are encoded using the
   &lt;tuple&gt; element, defined in PIDF; devices and persons are represented
   by the &lt;device&gt; and &lt;person&gt; XML elements, respectively, defined in
   the data model [<a href="#ref-16" title="&quot;A Data Model for Presence&quot;">16</a>].  However, neither PIDF nor the data model
   defines presence attributes beyond the &lt;basic&gt; status element.

   This specification defines additional presence attributes to describe
   person, service, and device data elements, summarized as "Rich
   Presence Information Data format for presence" (RPID).  These
   attributes are specified by XML elements that extend the PIDF &lt;tuple&gt;
   element and the &lt;device&gt; and &lt;person&gt; elements defined in the data
   model.

   This extension has two main goals:

   1.  Provide rich presence information that is at least as powerful as
       common commercial presence systems.  Such feature-parity
       simplifies transition to systems complying with the Common
       Profile for Instant Messaging (CPIM) [<a href="#ref-14" title="&quot;Common Profile for Instant Messaging (CPIM)&quot;">14</a>], both in terms of user
       acceptance and protocol conversion.

   2.  Maintain backward-compatibility with PIDF, so that PIDF-only
       watchers and gateways can continue to function properly,
       naturally without access to the functionality described here.

   We make no assumptions as to how the information in the RPID elements
   is generated.  Experience has shown that users are not always
   diligent about updating their presence status.  Thus, we want to make
   it as easy as possible to derive RPID information from other
   information sources, such as personal calendars, the status of
   communication devices such as telephones, typing activity, and




<span class="grey">Schulzrinne, et al.         Standards Track                     [Page 3]</span></pre>

<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc4480">RFC 4480</a>                          RIPD                         July 2006</span>


   physical presence detectors as commonly found in energy-management
   systems.

   Many of the elements correspond to data commonly found in personal
   calendars.  Thus, we attempted to align some of the extensions with
   the usage found in calendar formats such as iCal [<a href="#ref-13" title="&quot;Internet Calendaring and Scheduling Core Object Specification (iCalendar)&quot;">13</a>].

   The information in a presence document can be generated by a single
   entity or can be composed from information published by multiple
   entities.

   Note that PIDF documents and this extension can be used in two
   different contexts, namely, by the presentity to publish its presence
   status and by the presence server to notify some set of watchers.
   The presence server MAY compose, translate, or filter the published
   presence state before delivering customized presence information to
   the watcher.  For example, it may merge presence information from
   multiple presence user agents, remove whole elements, translate
   values in elements, or remove information from elements.  Mechanisms
   that filter calls and other communications to the presentity can
   subscribe to this presence information just like a regular watcher
   and in turn generate automated rules, such as scripts [<a href="#ref-15" title="&quot;Call Processing Language (CPL): A Language for User Control of Internet Telephony Services&quot;">15</a>], that
   govern the actual communications behavior of the presentity.  Details
   are described in the data model document.

   Since RPID is a PIDF XML document, it also uses the content type
   application/pidf+xml.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-2" href="#section-2">2</a>.  Terminology and Conventions</span>

   This memo makes use of the vocabulary defined in the IMPP model
   document [<a href="#ref-5" title="&quot;A Model for Presence and Instant Messaging&quot;">5</a>].  Terms such as CLOSED, INSTANT MESSAGE, OPEN, PRESENCE
   SERVICE, PRESENTITY, WATCHER, and WATCHER USER AGENT in the memo are
   used in the same meaning as defined therein.

   The key words MUST, MUST NOT, REQUIRED, SHOULD, SHOULD NOT,
   RECOMMENDED, MAY, and OPTIONAL in this document are to be interpreted
   as described in <a href="https://www.rfc-editor.org/bcp/bcp14">BCP 14</a>, <a href="./rfc2119">RFC 2119</a> [<a href="#ref-1" title="&quot;Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels&quot;">1</a>].

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.1" href="#section-3.1">3.1</a>.  Overview</span>

   Some of the RPID elements describe services, some devices, and some
   the person.  As such, they either extend &lt;tuple&gt;, &lt;device&gt;, or
   &lt;person&gt;, respectively.  Below, we summarize the RPID elements.  The
   next sections will then provide more detailed descriptions.

   activities:  The &lt;activities&gt; status element enumerates what the
      person is doing.

   class:  An identifier that groups similar person elements, devices,
      or services.

   deviceID:  A device identifier in a tuple references a &lt;device&gt;
      element, indicating that this device contributes to the service
      described by the tuple.

   mood:  The &lt;mood&gt; status element indicates the mood of the person.

   place-is:  The &lt;place-is&gt; status element reports on the properties of
      the place the presentity is currently at, such as the levels of
      light and noise.

   place-type:  The &lt;place-type&gt; status elements reports the type of
      place the person is located in, such as 'classroom' or 'home'.

   privacy:  The &lt;privacy&gt; element distinguishes whether the
      communication service is likely to be observable by other parties.

   relationship:  When a service is likely to reach a user besides the
      person associated with the presentity, the relationship indicates
      how that user relates to the person.

   service-class:  The &lt;service-class&gt; element describes whether the
      service is delivered electronically, is a postal or delivery
      service, or describes in-person communications.

   sphere:  The &lt;sphere&gt; element characterizes the overall current role
      of the presentity.

   status-icon:  The &lt;status-icon&gt; element depicts the current status of
      the person or service.

   time-offset:  The &lt;time-offset&gt; status element quantifies the time
      zone the person is in, expressed as the number of minutes away
      from UTC.

   user-input:  The &lt;user-input&gt; element records the user-input or usage
      state of the service or device, based on human user input.

   The 'From/until?' column in Table 1 indicates by an 'x' that the
   element can take 'from' and 'until' attributes.  An 'x' in the
   'Note?' column marks elements that can include a &lt;note&gt; element.  The
   usage of these elements within the &lt;person&gt;, &lt;tuple&gt;, and &lt;device&gt;
   elements is shown in columns 4 through 6.  An 'x' in the respective

                                  Table 1

   In general, it is unlikely that a presentity will publish or announce
   all of these elements at the same time.  Rather, these elements were
   chosen to give the presentity maximum flexibility in deriving this
   information from existing sources, such as calendaring tools, device
   activity sensors, or location trackers, as well as to manually
   configure this information.  In either case, there is no guarantee
   that the information is accurate, as users forget to update calendars
   or may not always adjust the presence information manually.

   The namespace URIs for these elements defined by this specification
   are URNs [<a href="#ref-2" title="&quot;URN Syntax&quot;">2</a>], using the namespace identifier 'ietf' defined by [<a href="#ref-4" title="&quot;A URN Namespace for IETF Documents&quot;">4</a>]
   and extended by [<a href="#ref-6" title="&quot;The IETF XML Registry&quot;">6</a>]:

      urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:rpid

   The elements marked with the value 'x' in column 2 of Table 1 MAY be
   qualified with the 'from' and 'until' attributes to describe the
   absolute time when the element assumed this value and the absolute
   time until which this element is expected to be valid.  Note that
   there can be multiple elements of the same type, whose time ranges
   SHOULD NOT overlap.

   Elements MAY contain an 'id' attribute that allows to uniquely
   reference the element.

   Enumerations can be extended by elements from other namespaces, as
   described in <a href="#section-6">Section 6</a>.  The &lt;activities&gt;, &lt;mood&gt;, and &lt;place-type&gt;
   elements can also take &lt;other&gt; elements containing text, for custom
   free-text values specific to an application.

   All elements described in this document are optional within PIDF
   documents.

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.2" href="#section-3.2">3.2</a>.  Activities Element</span>

   The &lt;activities&gt; element describes what the person is currently
   doing, expressed as an enumeration of activity-describing elements.
   A person can be engaged in multiple activities at the same time,
   e.g., traveling and having a meal.  The &lt;activities&gt; element can be
   quite helpful to the watcher in judging how appropriate a
   communication attempt is and which means of communications is most
   likely to succeed and not annoy the person.  The activity indications
   correspond roughly to the category field in calendar entries, such as
   <a href="./rfc2445#section-4.8.1.2">Section&nbsp;4.8.1.2 of RFC 2445</a> [<a href="#ref-13" title="&quot;Internet Calendaring and Scheduling Core Object Specification (iCalendar)&quot;">13</a>].

   An activities enumeration consists of one or more elements using
   elements drawn from the list below, a string enclosed in the &lt;other&gt;
   element, or IANA-registered values from other namespaces (<a href="#section-7">Section 7</a>).

   If a person publishes an activity of "permanent-absence", it is
   likely that all services will report a status of CLOSED.  In general,
   services MAY advertise either service status for any activity value.

   Activities such as &lt;appointment&gt;, &lt;breakfast&gt;, &lt;dinner&gt;, &lt;holiday&gt;,
   &lt;lunch&gt;, &lt;meal&gt;, &lt;meeting&gt;, &lt;performance&gt;, &lt;travel&gt;, or &lt;vacation&gt;
   can often be derived from calendar information.

   appointment:  The person has a calendar appointment, without
      specifying exactly of what type.  This activity is indicated if
      more detailed information is not available or the person chooses
      not to reveal more information.

   away:  The person is physically away from all interactive
      communication devices.  This activity element was included since
      it can often be derived automatically from security systems,
      energy management systems, or entry badge systems.  Although this

      to discourage communication, but indicate that he or she still can
      be reached if needed.  However, communication attempts might reach
      an answering service, for example.

   breakfast:  The person is eating the first meal of the day, usually
      eaten in the morning.

   busy:  The person is busy, without further details.  Although this
      activity would typically be associated with a status of CLOSED
      across all services, a person may declare himself or herself busy
      to discourage communication, but indicate that he or she still can
      be reached if needed.

   dinner:  The person is having his or her main meal of the day, eaten
      in the evening or at midday.

   holiday:  This is a scheduled national or local holiday.

   in-transit:  The person is riding in a vehicle, such as a car, but
      not steering.  The &lt;place-type&gt; element provides more specific
      information about the type of conveyance the person is using.

   looking-for-work:  The presentity is looking for (paid) work.

   lunch:  The person is eating his or her midday meal.

   meal:  The person is scheduled for a meal, without specifying whether
      it is breakfast, lunch, or dinner, or some other meal.

   meeting:  The person is in an assembly or gathering of people, as for
      a business, social, or religious purpose.  A meeting is a sub-
      class of an appointment.

   on-the-phone:  The person is talking on the telephone.  This activity
      is included since it can often be derived automatically.

   other:  The person is engaged in an activity with no defined
      representation as an &lt;activities&gt; element.  The enclosed string
      describes the activity in plain text.

   performance:  A performance is a sub-class of an appointment and
      includes musical, theatrical, and cinematic performances as well
      as lectures.  It is distinguished from a meeting by the fact that
      the person may either be lecturing or be in the audience, with a
      potentially large number of other people, making interruptions
      particularly noticeable.

   permanent-absence:  The person will not return for the foreseeable
      future, e.g., because it is no longer working for the company.
      This activity is associated with a status of CLOSED across all
      services.

   playing:  The person is occupying himself or herself in amusement,
      sport, or other recreation.

   presentation:  The person is giving a presentation, lecture, or
      participating in a formal round-table discussion.

   shopping:  The person is visiting stores in search of goods or
      services.

   sleeping:  This activity category can often be generated
      automatically from a calendar, local time information, or
      biometric data.

   spectator:  The person is observing an event, such as a sports event.

   steering:  The person is controlling a vehicle, watercraft, or plane.

   travel:  The person is on a business or personal trip, but not
      necessarily in-transit.

   tv:  The person is watching television.

   unknown:  The activity of the person is unknown.  This element is
      generally not used together with other activities.

   vacation:  A period of time devoted to pleasure, rest, or relaxation.

   working:  The presentity is engaged in, typically paid, labor, as
      part of a profession or job.

   worship:  The presentity is participating in religious rites.

   The &lt;activities&gt; element MAY be qualified with the 'from' and 'until'
   attributes as described in <a href="#section-3.1">Section 3.1</a>.

   Example:

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.3" href="#section-3.3">3.3</a>.  Class Element</span>

   The &lt;class&gt; element describes the class of the service, device, or
   person.  Multiple elements can have the same class name within a
   presence document, but each person, service, or device can only have
   one class label.  The naming of classes is left to the presentity.
   The presentity can use this information to group similar services,
   devices, or person elements or to convey information that the
   presence agent can use for filtering or authorization.  This
   information is not generally presented to the watcher user interface.

   The &lt;class&gt; element MUST NOT be qualified with the 'from' and 'until'
   attributes as described in <a href="#section-3.1">Section 3.1</a>.

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.4" href="#section-3.4">3.4</a>.  Device Identifier</span>

   The &lt;deviceID&gt; element in the &lt;tuple&gt; element references the device
   that provides a particular service.  The element is defined
   syntactically in the data model [<a href="#ref-16" title="&quot;A Data Model for Presence&quot;">16</a>] schema.  One service can be
   provided by multiple devices, so that each service tuple may contain
   zero or more &lt;deviceID&gt; elements.  There is no significance in the
   order of these elements.

   The &lt;deviceID&gt; element MUST NOT be qualified with the 'from' and
   'until' attributes as described in <a href="#section-3.1">Section 3.1</a>.

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.5" href="#section-3.5">3.5</a>.  Mood Element</span>

   The &lt;mood&gt; element describes the mood of the presentity.  The mood
   values are enumerated chosen by the presentity.  The mood itself is
   provided as the element name of a defined child element of the &lt;mood&gt;
   element (e.g., &lt;happy/&gt;); one such child element is REQUIRED.  The
   user MAY also specify a natural-language description of, or reason
   for, the mood in the &lt;note&gt; child of the &lt;mood&gt; element, which is
   OPTIONAL.  (This definition follows the Jabber Extension JEP-107.)
   It is RECOMMENDED that an implementation support the mood values
   proposed in Jabber Extension JEP-0107, which in turn are a superset
   of the Wireless Village [<a href="#ref-18" title="&quot;The Wireless Village Initiative: Presence Attributes 1.1&quot;">18</a>] mood values and the values enumerated in
   the Affective Knowledge Representation that has been defined by
   Lisetti [<a href="#ref-17" title="&quot;Personality, Affect, and Emotion Taxonomy for Socially Intelligent Agents&quot;">17</a>]:

   A mood enumeration consists of one or more elements using elements
   drawn from the list below, a string enclosed in the &lt;other&gt; element,
   or IANA-registered values from other namespaces (<a href="#section-7">Section 7</a>).

   The &lt;mood&gt; element MAY be qualified with the 'from' and 'until'
   attributes as described in <a href="#section-3.1">Section 3.1</a>.

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.6" href="#section-3.6">3.6</a>.  Place-is Element</span>

   The &lt;place-is&gt; element describes properties of the place the person
   is currently at.  This offers the watcher an indication of what kind
   of communication is likely to be successful.  Each major media type
   has its own set of attributes.  Omitting the element indicates that
   the property is unknown.

   For audio, we define the following attributes:

   noisy:  The person is in a place with a level of background noise
      that makes audio communications difficult.

   ok:  The environmental conditions are suitable for audio
      communications.

   quiet:  The person is in a place such as a library, restaurant, place
      of worship, or theater that discourages noise, conversation, and
      other distractions.

   unknown:  The place attributes for audio are unknown.

   For video, we define the following attributes:

   toobright:  The person is in a bright place, sufficient for good
      rendering on video.

   ok:  The environmental conditions are suitable for video.

   dark:  The person is in a dark place, and thus the camera may not be
      able to capture a good image.

   unknown:  The place attributes for video are unknown.

   For text (real-time text and instant messaging), we define

   uncomfortable:  Typing or other text entry is uncomfortable.

   inappropriate:  Typing or other text entry is inappropriate, e.g.,
      since the user is in a vehicle or house of worship.

   ok:  The environmental conditions are suitable for text-based
      communications.

   unknown:  The place attributes for text are unknown.

   This list can be augmented by free-text values in a note or
   additional IANA-registered values (<a href="#section-7">Section 7</a>).

   The &lt;place-is&gt; element contains other elements, e.g.,

     &lt;place-is&gt;
       &lt;audio&gt;
         &lt;noisy /&gt;
       &lt;/audio&gt;

   The &lt;place-type&gt; element describes the type of place the person is
   currently at.  This offers the watcher an indication of what kind of
   communication is likely to be appropriate.  The initial set of values
   is contained in <a href="./rfc4589">RFC 4589</a> [<a href="#ref-12" title="&quot;Location Types Registry&quot;">12</a>].

   The &lt;place-type&gt; element is a choice of elements, as in

     &lt;place-type&gt;
          &lt;pt:street/&gt;
     &lt;/place-type&gt;

   The &lt;place-type&gt; element MAY be qualified with the 'from' and 'until'
   attributes as described in <a href="#section-3.1">Section 3.1</a>.

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.8" href="#section-3.8">3.8</a>.  Privacy Element</span>

   The &lt;privacy&gt; element indicates which types of communication third
   parties in the vicinity of the presentity are unlikely to be able to
   intercept accidentally or intentionally.  This does not in any way
   describe the privacy properties of the electronic communication
   channel, e.g., properties of the encryption algorithm or the network
   protocol used.

   audio: Inappropriate individuals are not likely to overhear audio
      communications.

   text:  Inappropriate individuals are not likely to see text
      communications.

   unknown:  This information is unknown.

   video:  Inappropriate individuals are not likely to see video
      communications.

      The &lt;privacy&gt; element can be used by logic executing on the
      watcher or by a composer to filter, sort and label tuples.  For
      example, a composer may have rules that limit the publication of
      tuples labeled "private" to a select subset of the watchers.

   The &lt;privacy&gt; element MAY be qualified with the 'from' and 'until'
   attributes as described in <a href="#section-3.1">Section 3.1</a>.

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.9" href="#section-3.9">3.9</a>.  Relationship Element</span>

   The &lt;relationship&gt; element extends &lt;tuple&gt; and designates the type of
   relationship an alternate contact has with the presentity.  This
   element is provided only if the tuple refers to somebody other than
   the presentity.  Relationship values include "family", "friend",
   "associate" (e.g., for a colleague), "assistant", "supervisor",
   "self", and "unknown".  The default is "self".

   If a relationship is indicated, the URI in the &lt;contact&gt; element
   refers to the entity, such as the assistant, that has a relationship
   to the presentity, not the presentity itself.

   Like tuples without a &lt;relationship&gt; qualifier, the &lt;contact&gt; element
   for tuples labeled with a relationship can contain either a
   communication URI such as "im", "sip", "sips", "h323", "tel", or
   "mailto", or a presence URI, such as "pres" or "sip".

   Example:

     &lt;relationship&gt;
       &lt;friend/&gt;
     &lt;/relationship&gt;

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.10" href="#section-3.10">3.10</a>.  Service Class</span>

   The &lt;service-class&gt; element extends &lt;tuple&gt; and designates the type
   of service offered.

   electronic:  Delivery of information by electronic means, i.e.,
      without delivering physical objects.  Examples include telephone,
      fax, email, instant messaging, and SMS.

   postal:  Delivery by the postal service, e.g., as a letter, parcel,
      or postcard.  Delivery could be to a post office box or central
      mailroom rather than the presentity's office location, for
      example.

   courier:  Delivery by messenger, overnight delivery, or courier.
      Courier-delivered messages are usually delivered to a receptionist
      rather than, say, a mailroom or receiving department.

   freight:  Delivery by freight carrier, typically of larger objects
      that are not sent by postal mail or courier.  The recipient is
      often the shipping department or a loading dock.

   in-person:  Describes the coordinates for visits in person, as by a
      visitor, i.e., usually somebody's office or residence.

   unknown:  The type of service is unknown.

   Electronic service is implied if omitted.  The service types
   'postal', 'courier', 'freight', and 'in-person' MUST NOT be used
   unless the contact URI is empty.  Additional data elements defined
   elsewhere describe the physical service delivery address for the in-
   person, postal, or delivery services.  Such addresses might be
   specified in geospatial coordinates, civic addresses, or some
   specialized address format, e.g., for interstellar addresses or a
   company-specific delivery system.

   Example:

     &lt;service-class&gt;&lt;postal/&gt;&lt;/service-class&gt;

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.11" href="#section-3.11">3.11</a>.  Sphere Element</span>

   The &lt;sphere&gt; element designates the current state and role that the
   person plays.  For example, it might describe whether the person is
   in a work mode, at home, or participating in activities related to
   some other organization such as the IETF or a church.  This document
   does not define names for these spheres except for two common ones,
   "work" and "home", as well as "unknown".

   Spheres allow the person to easily turn on or off certain rules that
   depend on what groups of people should be made aware of the person's
   status.  For example, if the person is a Boy Scout leader, he might
   set the sphere to "scouting" and then have a rule set that allows
   other scout masters in his troop to see his presence status.  As soon
   as he switches his status to "work", "home", or some other sphere,
   the fellow scouts would lose access.

   The &lt;sphere&gt; element MAY be qualified with the 'from' and 'until'
   attributes as described in <a href="#section-3.1">Section 3.1</a>.

   Example:

     &lt;sphere&gt;
       &lt;home/&gt;
     &lt;/sphere&gt;

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.12" href="#section-3.12">3.12</a>.  Status-Icon Element</span>

   The &lt;status-icon&gt; element includes a URI pointing to an image (icon)
   representing the current status of the person or service.  The
   watcher MAY use this information to represent the status in a
   graphical user interface.  Presentities SHOULD provide images of




<span class="grey">Schulzrinne, et al.         Standards Track                    [Page 16]</span></pre>
<hr class='noprint'/><!--NewPage--><pre class='newpage'><span id="page-17" ></span>

   sizes and aspect ratios that are appropriate for rendering as an
   icon.  Support for JPEG, PNG, and GIF formats is RECOMMENDED.

   Watchers resolving the URI MUST validate whether the local copy of
   the icon is current when receiving a notification, using the standard
   cache control mechanism in the URI-identified retrieval protocol.

   Example:

     &lt;status-icon&gt;http://www.example.com/playing.gif&lt;/status-icon&gt;

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.13" href="#section-3.13">3.13</a>.  Time Offset</span>

   The &lt;time-offset&gt; element describes the number of minutes of offset
   from UTC at the person's current location.  A positive number
   indicates that the local time-of-day is ahead (i.e., east of)
   Universal Time, while a negative number indicates that the local
   time-of-day is behind (i.e., west of) Universal Time.  Transitions
   into and out of daylight savings time may temporarily cause a
   difference between the true offset from UTC and the time offset
   element.

   An optional attribute, description, can be used to describe the
   offset, e.g., by labeling the time zone.  This description is meant
   for human consumption.

   Publishers on mobile devices SHOULD NOT publish this information
   unless they know the time offset information to reflect the current
   location.  (For example, many laptop users do not update their time
   zone when traveling.)  Publishers SHOULD update the information
   whenever they discover that their UTC offset has changed.

   Example:

     &lt;time-offset description="America/New_York"&gt;-300
     &lt;/time-offset&gt;

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.14" href="#section-3.14">3.14</a>.  User-Input Element</span>

   The &lt;user-input&gt; element records the user-input or usage state of the
   service or device, based on human user input, e.g., keyboard,
   pointing device, or voice.  If contained in a &lt;person&gt; element, it
   summarizes any user input activity across all services and devices
   operated by the presentity.  The mechanism for such aggregation is
   beyond the scope of this document, but generally reflects the most
   recent user input across all devices and services.  The element can
   assume one of two values, namely, 'active' or 'idle', with an
   optional 'last-input' attribute that records when the last user input

   was received.  An optional 'idle-threshold' element records how long
   the presentity will wait before reporting the service or device to be
   idle, measured in seconds.

   (A two-state model was chosen since it would otherwise be necessary
   to send repeated last-input updates during continuous activity.)

   A service that wants to indicate user input activity sends a &lt;user-
   input&gt; 'active' indication when the user has provided user input
   within a configurable interval of time, the idle-threshold.  If the
   user ceases to provide input and the idle-threshold has elapsed, the
   tuple is marked with a &lt;user-input&gt; 'idle' indication instead,
   optionally including the time of last activity in the 'last-input'
   attribute.  An example is below:

     &lt;user-input idle-threshold="600"
       last-input="2004-10-21T13:20:00.000-05:00"&gt;idle&lt;/user-input&gt;

   Depending on device or service capabilities, user input may be
   detected only for a particular application, i.e., when the
   application has user focus or when a user has sent a message or
   placed a call, or can be based on user input across all applications
   running on one end system.

   The &lt;user-input&gt; element may be used by a watcher, typically in
   combination with other data, to estimate how likely a user is to
   answer when contacting the service.  A tuple that has not been used
   in a while may still be OPEN, but a watcher may choose to first
   contact a URI in a tuple that is both OPEN and has been used more
   recently.

   The &lt;user-input&gt; attribute can be omitted if the presentity wants to
   indicate that the device has not been used for a while, but does not
   want to reveal the precise duration, as in the following:

     &lt;user-input&gt;idle&lt;/user-input&gt;

   Configuration MUST include the option to omit the 'last-input'
   attribute.

   The example below describes the presentity
   'pres:someone@example.com', which has a SIP contact,
   'sip:someone@example.com', representing a service.  It also has a
   device contact, as an email box.  The presentity is in a meeting, in
   a public office setting.  The 'until' information indicates that he
   will be there until 5:30 pm local time.  The presentity also has an

   The RPID schema is shown below.  Due to limitations in composing

   Table 1 restricts where these elements can appear for semantically
   valid RPID documents.  Elements that do not have from/until

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-6" href="#section-6">6</a>.  Extending RPID</span>

   Any developer can introduce their own element names, avoiding
   conflict by choosing an appropriate namespace URI.  To add new
   standardized elements to the enumerations &lt;activities&gt;, &lt;mood&gt;,
   &lt;privacy&gt;, &lt;relationship&gt; and &lt;service-class&gt;, the extension process
   described in PIDF [<a href="#ref-9" title="&quot;Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (Third Edition),&quot;">9</a>] is followed, i.e., such extensions would use
   namespace designators such as urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:ext, where
   'ext' is the name of the extension.  Any new values for the &lt;place-
   type&gt; element are assigned according to [<a href="#ref-12" title="&quot;Location Types Registry&quot;">12</a>] and are given a
   namespace designator at their time of registration.

   To avoid the unnecessary proliferation of XML namespaces containing a
   single element, groups of element registrations for each of these
   enumerations, such as &lt;privacy&gt;, SHOULD be bundled into a single
   namespace rather than assigning a new namespace to each new element.

      'urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:status:rpid'

   URI:  urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:status:rpid
   Registrant Contact:  IESG
   XML:  See <a href="#section-5">Section 5</a>

   Note that this document does not need a new content type.  It
   inherits the content type from [<a href="#ref-8" title="&quot;Presence Information Data Format (PIDF)&quot;">8</a>], namely, application/pidf+xml.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-8" href="#section-8">8</a>.  Internationalization Considerations</span>

   RPID contains mostly tokens that are meant for consumption by
   programs, not directly by humans.  Programs are expected to translate
   those tokens into language-appropriate text strings according to the
   preferences of the watcher.

   Some elements may contain &lt;note&gt; and &lt;other&gt; elements that can
   contain free text.  These elements SHOULD be labeled with the 'xml:
   lang' attribute to indicate their language and script.  The
   specification allows multiple occurrences of these elements so that
   the presentity can convey &lt;note&gt; and &lt;other&gt; elements in multiple
   scripts and languages.  If no 'xml:lang' attribute is provided, the
   default value is "i-default" [<a href="#ref-3" title="&quot;IETF Policy on Character Sets and Languages&quot;">3</a>].

   Since RPID is represented in XML, it provides native support for
   encoding information using the Unicode character set and its more
   compact representations including UTF-8.  Conformant XML processors
   recognize both UTF-8 and UTF-16.  Though XML includes provisions to
   identify and use other character encodings through use of an
   "encoding" attribute in an &lt;?xml?&gt; declaration, use of UTF-8 is
   RECOMMENDED in environments where parser encoding support
   incompatibility exists.

   A description of time-zone considerations can be found in
   <a href="#section-3.13">Section 3.13</a>.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-9" href="#section-9">9</a>.  Security Considerations</span>

   The security considerations in [<a href="#ref-8" title="&quot;Presence Information Data Format (PIDF)&quot;">8</a>] apply, as well as [<a href="#ref-7" title="&quot;A Presence Event Package for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)&quot;">7</a>].  Compared
   to PIDF, this presence document format reveals additional information
   about presentities that can be highly sensitive.  Beyond traditional
   security measures to protect confidentiality and integrity, systems
   should offer a means to selectively reveal information to particular
   watchers and to inspect the information that is being published,
   particularly if it is generated automatically from other sources,
   such as calendars or sensors.

   Like any reference to an external object, the &lt;status-icon&gt; may allow
   the presentity to induce the watcher to retrieve data from a third
   party (content indirection attack), thus either retrieving harmful
   content or adding to the server load of the referenced resource.
