This coming month we have software freedom day, Atlanta LinuxFest, Two events in Portland OR, ossbarcamp, and more! Listen in, and don’t miss a thing.

Site Updates

We’re had many requests for a few different features, so we would like to outline what we’re working on in this regard.

1.) Event mapping: This is a challenging feature to build, but it is something we’re looking into: the ability to find events by location and distance from you.

2.) User Group Calendar integration: Several users groups have requested the ability to send us an ical or rss feed, and have those events automatically posted here. Rest assured, we are working on this and it is likely to be the next feature we complete.

3.) RSS feeds and notifications: This is one many individuals request.  We would eventually like to tie this in to item 1, and devise a way for users to get an RSS feed of events local to them.

Now that you know what we’re working on, feel free to mail in to comment on any of these or anything else you would like to see us add.  In addition, if you are interested in helping out with the design of these features,  and have a background in wordpress or php, give us a shout via the contact form.
