Will it be possible to support email software like thunderbird?

Hello designers and ambassadors!
A lot of people asked recently for a functioning Fedora event system.
This event
system should replace the wiki pages we currently use to manage
events.
I think we should implement this, because this will have many
benefits
for us (and the ability to show the users nearby events on their homepage
is a great plus)
What I imagine a perfect event system including is:
Swag & budget management for ambassadors (instead of trac tickets)
Exact time, date, map and any other special arrival instructions
A free form text field for event information
A list of Fedorian attendees of the event (every Fedorian should be able
to add
himself as an atendee)
Optional registration (in case the event is organized by the Fedora
community and not just a random event Fedora has a booth/stand at)
Ability to attach event reports to the event page after the event is
over
RSS feeds for events filtered by area
Tags/Categories (so it'll be easy to search events by type and field of
interest)
Email notifications for events in your area that you can sign up for
That's just what I can come up with now. What else would you like to see
in
such an event system?
Does anyone want to start designing it (with mockups and everything)?
Does anyone have the time to implement such system?
Such event system will not only help ambassadors to organize events
better —
it'll also help users to find events with Fedora presence in them,
which will surely help them become a part of the community and sooner or
later become contributors :)
