Steven,
Steven,
I've added your public Google calendar. Thank you for making it public
since you are clearly maintaining it anyway. If the open source version
can be fixed then all the better but I appreciate having this option.

In addition to the proprietary/free issue,
duplicating content is awful
from
a maintenance perspective. As far as I know, there's no automatic sync in
place, so the wiki and Google are inevitably going to fall out of sync.
There are other reasons to keep the information centralized, but until
the
wiki can support XML and iCal output, the benefit
of using Google
outweighs
the cost.
Just to address this: the people duplicating the content are folks like
myself, Oliver, Philippe and Lydia who have to schedule office hours and
make sure they get into someone's calendar anyway. Using a shared calendar
(rather than putting them in the attendee's individual calendar alone) is
actually much more efficient on our end.
Thanks,
Steven
