Hi, Looks like we have the same thoughts for our infra. "Create event" could mean a very serious solution for our event handling, why couldn't be in Evolution too? Moreover I see apps from our side that can blow lots of minds. Eg. we have already amazing apps. We have an wonderful app called FedoCal. We have FedMsg. We have Evolution. So...what? Well, FedoCal can be our portal, openness, filtering report about events. FedMesg can be our handler - that through FAS can send even to a person in evolution mail format reminders, that appears in notification, and from that place I can select/mark as task, that gonna be inserted to my evolution. In return, when I select in evolution that task is done, it appears as a message and a notification if necessary in FedoCal, or sends a message that task/milestone done to the project leader.... If FedMesg would be able to use up .iCal or .ics (witch is possibly are already there), and mail format - that can mean also easier trac tiketts fill up (requests, handling, feedback), or wikipedia event pages. All in all - we are very near to revolutionize our project, and communication within subprojects, community in all and within leaders. How magnificent would be to have a dedicated community messaging service that binds together mailinglists, task management, events.... What do you think?
