Here is a really successful project from where I live that Fedora might
benefit from.

http://calagator.org/
http://code.google.com/p/calagator/

It is different from the traditional "calendaring/Outlook" type solution
that has been under discussion, but it is extremely easy for people to
add events to and for others to query and get updates from (RSS and ical
feeds).

Maybe it would be useful for a small segment of our project like weekly
team meetings.  It could also be used on much larger scale for Fedora
events around the world.

John

Yes, absolutely!  As well as exportable to "iCalendar," "Google Calendar" and "My Yahoo!"  :)

Hi,
Looks like we have hit the usual hardle, java.
http://code.google.com/p/calagator/wiki/DevelopmentSoftware
says it need java 1.6 for solr which provides search functionality.

I am not sure if it works with openjdk or not.
Can anyone please update  in that regard?
Thanks.

Is it feasibly to look at the workflow followed by LWN ? Write in
about the details of a Fedora event via a contact form and, based on a
review of the wiki page it gets listed on a calendar ?
