- CURIE:
gmeow:rsvpStatus - IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/rsvpStatus
- Category: property
- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/calendar - Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)
The RSVP response status as asserted by the invitee — needs-action, accepted, declined, tentative. Distinct from invitationStatus: the organizer's view and the invitee's view may disagree, and both claims coexist (Principle 9).
Structure
Property shape: object property; gmeow:EventInvitation -> gmeow:RsvpStatus
Practical Pattern

# Worked example: a recurring meeting with invitations. A gmeow:EventSchedule
# repeats a TEMPLATE event by a gmeow:RecurrenceRule (an RFC 5545 RRULE string),
# all anchored in an explicit gmeow:TimeZone (IANA id) — so "every Monday 09:00"
# is unambiguous across DST. Invitations are reified gmeow:EventInvitations
# carrying both the organiser-side gmeow:invitationStatus and the invitee's own
# gmeow:rsvpStatus. The event's kind is an open vocabulary: there is no seed
# "meeting" EventType, so one is minted (the custom-value idiom, P9).

Usage Advice
Use when
- Use to record the INVITEE's own response to an invitation — the reply the recipient asserts, which may differ from the organizer's
gmeow:invitationStatus.
Avoid when
- Avoid using it for the organizer's record (that is
gmeow:invitationStatus) and avoid forcing the two views to agree; they coexist as distinct claims (Principle 9).
How to use
- Set a
gmeow:RsvpStatusvalue for the invitee's reply; when organizer and invitee disagree, standpoint-index each viaaccordingTorather than choosing a winner.
