You can ask infra, but I don't see this as a viable cross project service since
confluence
is not standards across all projects. Personally I'd say don't bother. If you
have a solution
for Geode then you should stick with that for now. If others ask then we can
think about
asking infra. But I don't think adding to infra management overhead is a good
idea without
good cause (managing plugins for Confluence has been a problem in the past.
The only reason for the request would be to manage Calendars on ASF INFRA
while not requiring yet *another* account to be known and shared among
community members. The pain is really along the same lines you're describing
at the end of your email saying 'Melissa has the keys'. I was trying to figure
out a way of how to avoid this single point of calendar management.
Google Calendars are eminently shareable. If we continue to do event
management in a google cal, we can both share that out to numerous
people, as well as aggregate numerous sub-calendars into one place.
Also, being iCalendar-based, we can at some later date export and import
into another tool if we choose.
We do need a better solution for cross project event tracking. I do have
something
"in the works" and I've been given a push by Rich's recent work on a script to
pull
data from meetup.com. However when this will be available is dependent on my
time (and interest) or that of people willing to volunteer.
Is this something you can share? It would really great to have an ASF tool
we all can use. However little cycles I've got I may be able to help at least
somewhat.
This was discussed on this list at the end of last week, and is in
comdev svn at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/comdev/tools
