I think that's a great discussion to have Ed. The permissions to be able to approve events can be given to anyone with a specific site role. Currently I'm using the "Editor" role, but this could be a new role specifically for this. I'm all for widening the pool of folks who can do stuff & it makes sense to me that any working gruop spoke could approve an event. The only issue I see us needing to figure out is with space rental. Folks approving events would need to be up to speed on how that should be handled.<br>

We might want to talk about Shows role in approving events. We are
happy to continue approving events for all the spaces, but if people
think that someone else should do the library, family room, production,
or any space that doesn't include the main space or sun room, we could
probably see our way to let someone else do that. Any thoughts?<br>

<br>
Following on some of the tech announcements we had at last steering,
the Tech group is moving forward with some changes to the event
calendar on the main site. <br>
<br>
These changes include: <br>
- moving from WebEasel to a true date-based calendar, built into the
website.<br>
- abilitiy to propose an event in specific locations, specify an event
type, associate an event with a particular working group, require event
contact information, include a picture in an event, & more<br>
- site visitors viewing the calendar will be able to filter events by
event type, location, working group, etc. as well.<br>
- provide ical feeds of the calendar to other calendars, and feasilbly
be able to consume ical feeds from those calendars also<br>
<br>
Currently the shows work group approves events, so a group role will be
created on the main website which has admin access to approve events.<br>
<br>
If spokes have comments or discussion on this change, or have
suggestions for additional features please let the tech group know
either in reply or at <a href="mailto:imc-tech@ucimc.org" target="_blank">imc-tech@ucimc.org</a><br>
