JSContact: A JSON representation of contact data
draft-ietf-jmap-jscontact-01
Abstract
This specification defines a data model and JSON representation of
contact card information that can be used for data storage and
exchange in address book or directory applications. It aims to be an
alternative to the vCard data format and to be unambiguous,
extendable and simple to process. In contrast to the JSON-based
jCard format, it is not a direct mapping from the vCard data model
and expands semantics where appropriate.
