image As an organizer of a small Agile user group and potentially a small Agile conference I’ve noticed that the Community lacks one good central calendar with a list of events. If we created one – would you find it useful?

I’ve suggested that InfoQ create one and need to determine what the minimum feature set would be:

  • Events are tagged with their geographic location, time, date, cost – with everything else in free form text
  • Only not for profit events are allowed I’m not quite sure what test to apply here I just know that we would drown in Scrum/Agile training announcements if they were permitted on the same calendar.
  • Subscribe via RSS
  • Subscribe via monthly/bi-weekly email.
  • Moderated to prevent spam
  • Anyone can submit an event

In the wine world something like this already exists: http://www.localwineevents.com/events/listing/all/76

My questions:

  • Would this be useful to you?
  • Would you subscribe?
  • What features am I missing from the minimum feature set?
  • Would you be willing to help moderate this?
  • Is there any existing open source/free software that can be used to this job?
  • Would you think to look on: http://planet.infoq.com/ to find the calendar?

BTW I've seen a couple of other efforts at: http://upcoming.yahoo.com/group/2228/ and – Google Calendar but neither appear to have taken off.

Please share your ideas.
