Annoyed by the difficulties of tracking events in the Wikimedia tech community? Or by the difficulties of announcing events in an effective way? Check this out:
Consolidate the many tech events calendars in Phabricator's calendar https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T1035
The hypothesis is that it is worth improving the current situation with calendars in the Wikimedia tech community, and that Phabricator Calendar is the best starting point. If we get a system that works for Wikimedia Tech, I believe we can get a system that works for the rest of Wikimedia, probably with some extra steps.
The Technical Collaboration team has some budget that we could use to fund the Phabricator maintainers to prioritize some improvements in their Calendar. If you think this is a bad idea and/or you have a better one, please discuss in the task (preferred) or here. If you think this is a good idea, your reassuring feedback is welcome too. ;)
Thank you!
