This is directed to ComDev members who maintain the events.apache.org site.

ASF Marketing & Publicity is exploring the possibility of migrating content
from *events.apache.org <http://events.apache.org>* to the main site
(i.e. *apache.org/events
<http://apache.org/events>*). The current /events page is orphaned,
unlinked, and contains outdated information.

*Why this change?* Hosting events directly on the main website would
provide a more consistent user experience, strengthen branding, and raise
visibility among prospective attendees. With the recent website update,
events are now featured on the homepage, making it even more important to
ensure accuracy and consistency.

Migrating content from events.apache.org would also make it easier to keep
the homepage listings current, while avoiding the need to maintain a
separately branded subdomain.

We recognize that there is an existing approval process for events being
published and would like to better understand how that workflow intersects
with this idea.

To start the discussion: are there historical reasons or practical
considerations that make this change difficult?
