What would it take to remove the calendar?
AngelinaBelle:
Wedge actually stuck in hooks for later development. So we may see later what ideas they have for expanding on events management.
It is a natural componant of a community-building website.
When you've got a repo or demo or something to link to, we'll be sure to list your fork.
Kindred:
Oh, we have a whole list of things that were planned to add to the calendar
recurring events
event times
attendees
limited attendence/signups
load holidays via upload of CSV
download iCal/vCal for events
I actually has all of those in a 1.1.0 mod that just got to be too much for me to maintain.
(borrowed from Jack's Phat Cal Pack for 1.0 and Grudge's holiday import)
All of that, plus some other goodies are planned to be added.
the goal, however, was to make the calendar a fully functional add-on (see above) rather than an inherent part of the core product because adding all that could increase the code significantly. Additionally, only about 50% of the forums actually USE the calendar for anything other than birthdays.
wedge isn't breaking any new ground with their actions... it's something that we've been planning for 2.++ even while 2.0 was being finished (as Arantor is quite aware)
AngelinaBelle:
I'm sure he knows he was involved in lots of features and priorities discussions. By working on a fork, he is able to prioritize things the way he wants.
Seems to suit him.
Kindred:
so, it's been brought to my attention that some people may read my previous statement as yet another attack.... it was not intended as such.
Just a comment and that we actually intended to do the same thing (and yes, we are aware that it is not a minor un-raveling)....
as for suiting him.... I haven't been over there for a while, so I'll take your word for it. Hopefully both he and Nao are happy. :)

Oh, I'm sure they are, I sure am as well. They are both the most active developers I've ever see...
