Open Stack

Steve,

I definitely get that it's tough to switch services. Especially when the 
feature set is unequal. One never wants to drop features, but this is a 
very time sensitive release, as you can imagine. On the plus side, we're 
hopeful our app will work at this Summit, where Sched's failed. We've 
put a lot of time and attention into caching, which should provide a 
better user experience.

We did try to give some fair notice about this. You'll note the original 
email was sent on April 4, which was right about the time we realized we 
wouldn't be able to get fit calendar integration in. Rest assured it's a 
priority for Barcelona. Meanwhile, I've actually printed out a copy of 
my schedule and will reference it during the 5 days of the Summit. 
Hopefully I won't suffer too much ;)

Finally, please note that the whole openstack.org site is open source 
and available on github 
<https://github.com/OpenStackweb/openstack-org/tree/production/summit>. 
We welcome contributors, so don't hesitate to jump in.

Cheers and feel free to stop by the App Help desk and chat with me near 
Summit Registration if you have further questions/feedback.

Thanks!
Jimmy McArthur

It's still pretty brutal to discover the week before the event that this functionality is missing when it was available for previous summits albeit via a third party site (sched.org). Like Tim I'm trying to ensure my schedule is reflected in my work calendar and a PDF doesn't really help with that - I'm still stuck manually creating calendar entries.
