Hi open source community,
As we prepare for the third anniversary for opensource.com this Friday, January
25, many of you know we like to celebrate the open source community. We'll be
announcing a new feature on the website for listing events such as open source
conferences, seminars, meetings, webinars, and more. If you are part of a Linux
User Group or similar, you should submit your meeting to the calendar. Running
an open source event? Submit that too.
Here's the deal. Before we launch, we'd like to have some events populated in
the calendar. Which means we need your help. I know many of you will just want
to see the calendar and provide feedback, and we appreciate that. But we really
need to test out the submission process--with legit data (no testing data
please, we've done plenty of that already).
Happy Friday opensource.com friends!
I wanted to follow-up on this topic. I first need to say thank you.
Thanks for testing, adding events, and providing feedback. It was very
helpful.
We were fortunate enough to get a few of your ideas included in our last
release cycle. Those features/updates were deployed to the site
yesterday. They include auto-populating the end date, having one color
in the calendar view, and fixing some bugs that we were seeing with
views (titles were appearing where they shouldn't have).
We're planning on announcing the events calendar on Monday, so be on the
look out for that article and be ready to share it with your networks.
Until then, my gift to you this weekend is a shiny, new calendar for
open source events:

Thank you,
