avoiding the javascript: void("") over here

of course, the big guy has to take the seat right in front of me.

blocking my view

Cornelia Ann Bailey, University of Chicago

appears to be an introduction to what bedework is

open source?

www.uchicago.edu/ dynamic front page, old calendar would blow up at any time

ooh... i like their homepage

going over calendar standards: iCalendar, iCal, CALDAV

sample sites: events.rpi.edu/ event.uchicago.edu/cal/

they use two RH5 vm's with mysql

good use of red on uchigao.edu

"calendar is only as good as the number and quality of events entered in the system"

smeranda yes, nice site

now if I could find some way to get the staff to actually put their events in the calendar

bedework has widgets to remotely grab events for display on other sites.

encourages someone to maintain the system, post events, dig up important events, quality assurance

notes for implementingon't start with replacing the central calendar, do something safer first.

really easy to evaluate, one download, and if your desktop pc is strong enough you can run it

looks and sounds like a sweet calendar.

began evaluating in 2005... and decided to go with bedework

I don't think bedework looks that great (visually), but they've got a lot of great features

is it open source?

yep!

question from the audience, "have you had any problems with failsafes & race conditions" :-|

seems kinda slow

audience--- "race conditions, 500 errors, we've fixed some, but theres still more" 50 users, 4 servers,

sounds like an audience member has had quite a few issues and errors with their deployment

but, their developer doesn't communicated well, and isn't that pro-active about fixing errors

so when are giving your talk on events.unl.edu

lot of work to be done before I'd go bragging about it
