Open Stack

Stig,

Thanks for the thoughts on the Events page. It's definitely something 
that has grown beyond the confines of the current page. We welcome 
community feedback on the page and it is something that has been on the 
redesign list for a while.  I'm expecting the Foundation design team to 
come around to this after the Barcelona Summit, if not sooner.

>> - A filter for listing of regional events
We're already collecting this information by adding Regional as well as 
City, State, Country fields into the Event registration on 
openstack.org. Still on the list to coordinate with groups.openstack.org 
to make sure we're gathering / passing the same information.
>> - Some way of tagging content for specific subject matter
We do have some rudimentary tagging for things like Enterprise, 
OpenStack Days, Summits, etc... Additionally, we have a whole new 
tagging system that we rolled out for Call for Presentations. We're 
working to incorporate this into the Events page as well.
>> - Having events in a calendar format (filtered by region and perhaps 
>> content)
Yeah, the current listing method is just not practical. I'm not 100% 
sure a calendar format is the right way, but maybe we could make that an 
alternate view. Something for discussion :)

>> Is this something that has been discussed previously and is it 
>> something we could help to make happen?
Please continue the feedack! We're taking notes :)

Cheers,
Jimmy
