Hi Daniel,
I am -1 to maintain multiple places for Apache Events. I think
events.apache.org, www.apache.org/foundation/events, etc. should all
redirect to apachecon.com and all energies and efforts should be spent on
maintaining that site as the source of truth.
To my knowledge all the other places are grossly out of date and
apachecon.com is the only one with current data.
They are, and lots of people want to consolidate things, hence the
proposal. A -1 is generally a conservative "don't/revert", which would
leave those things as is ;-). It's fine to be of the opinion that it
should all be apachecon (and we'll agree to politely disagree there). In
the end, that's up to VP Conferences I suppose. I wouldn't be strongly
opposed to that...I just wanna be rid of waaay too many sources of truth
for events. I'll copy this discussion to where it belongs.
Does that clarify things? Is there some initiative that I'm unaware of
that this is dousing with cold water?
Regards,
KAM

Sorry, but I'm a -1. I view the roadshows as mini ApacheCons. I'm also
trying to build sponsors who look at the whole year of events rather than
just AC. Especially where AC EU is in fact a roadshow.
Are you saying "can the whole idea" or are you suggesting changes to where
the roadshow website lives? Throwing a -1 into it seems a bit much.
I'd likely point www.a.o/events to events.apache.org and point that to
apachecon.com.

There needs to be some consolidation, definitely.
We currently use:
- apachecon.com
- events.apache.org
- www.a.o/events/
Forgot some (my recommendations)
https://www.apache.org/foundation/events (delete & redirect)
https://community.apache.org/calendars/ (???)
https://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/ (edit template to have big pointer
to new homepage, since this is almost all stale)
My proposal would be:
1) move www.a.o/events to events.apache.org, make it an easy to modify
git web site
2) have apachecon.com be about apachecon only
3) Make events.apache.org the landing page we currently have on
apachecon.com that has both ACNA, EU Roadshow etc.
Big +1, with an addendum that events.a.o would have a large footer that
also pointed to the community calendar/meetups/other pages.
