Sounds interesting. Asking a bit much but it would be great to be able to have an event history and a feed, if that makes sense. While 'creation' events are of interest to others in feed form, it would be good to be able to look at the 'history' of my events as a user or administrator too, including deletion events. Just a thought.
Looking forward to looking at the update.
