Hi SM,

What is the "XXXX-CardDAV" tag for in "Updates"?

This is the same as [I-D.ietf-vcarddav-carddav].

In Section 5:

   "The client will need to make authenticated HTTP requests to the
    service.  Typically a "user identifier" is required for some form
    of user/password authentication."

Is that the userinfo from RFC 3986?

Yes.

Is the user prompted for the password?

In Section 5:

  "An SRV lookup for _caldavs._tcp (for CalDAV) or _carddavs._tcp
   (for CardDAV) is done with the user provided "domain" as the
   service domain."

The IANA request (Section 8.3) only mentions adding "caldav" and "caldavs" service labels as aliases for "http" and "https" respectively.

carddavs and carddav are already registered in [I-D.ietf-vcarddav-carddav].
