[Ambassadors] Fedora Events Web app

[Mohd Izhar Firdaus Ismail]

Hi Elad,

Currently I have a kindof half-cooked system on fedora.my site which I
used for local FADs/events and the last FUDCon KL . It was done on
Plone to make use of the existing features and addons.

built-in Page contenttype (or we can also use custom ones)

to user-defined criteria ..

triggered (eg: object added event)
