Goals
Discuss approaches for integrating calendaring and scheduling data within the portal. Discuss Rutgers "Calendar Summary" approach, and build consensus for community development efforts.
Rutgers Experiences
- Key: separate consuming events from generating
- Aggregating multiple calendaring systems
- we didn't want to build another event silo backend
Near Term Goals
- Aggregate calendars
- Subscribing calendars - UI
- included (academic calendar, schedule)
- how do you select or find events
- iCal
Far Term Goals
- Grid view (weekly)
- Reconciliation
- Directory, tagging, catalog of calendars
- "Starred" events in a virtual view?
- requires backing store?
- share calendars with others?
- send this event to others feature, suggest attendance to others
- attending vs. watching model, advertise where you're going
- trigger alerts based on calendar events or bits
- copy events into an activc queue (google star)
