No coding required -- this is a planning/UI/community question

The info we currently collect/store doesn't seem to capture either the info currently usually added to the wiki, or the most useful info.

We should work out what info to include in the form/listing.

Current form has:

  • event name
  • time and date
  • additional info URL
  • street address
  • your email address

Compare to https://www.cryptoparty.in, where:

  • most events don't have a name

many/most events do have:

  • venue (somewhat distinct from address, I think)
  • directions (again, slightly different from address -- e.g. nearby public transport, where to park, which room number)
  • end time as well as start time
  • topics which will be covered
  • organizer (e.g. sponsoring organization)
  • what to bring / preparation expected
  • target audience
  • and some free-text description
  • registration required

We probably shouldn't include all these in the template, but do want some of them.

see bug cryptoparty#26

Still needs us to:

 - link to the feed from the rest of the site (both human-readable and for autodiscovery)
 - work out the ordering. most-recently-added seems most useful, but requires us to collect that info
 - decide the content of the feed items -- cf. issue cryptoparty#32

Also: this is Atom only, not RSS -- but I think one feed format is enough?

I would opt for keeping as little Info as possible on the calendar. IMO this app should not be the canonical address for managing cryptoparty information and announcements but a geographically and temporally indexed pointer to wherever the organizing community is comfortable with hosting their information.

This also drastically reduces the time needed to just add an entry to the calendar.
