Conference Management Software for Conference Organizers

congo's Issues

Create list of Current GopherCon services to examine possible integration points

Community

I'd like this project to be as open and welcoming as possible for people of all backgrounds. We probably need to do a few things to make that happen:

• Keep issues well curated
• Tag easier issues for beginners
• Keep a group of mentors ready for code reviews and advice
• Create a policy for participants to prevent harassment, unnecessary rudeness, etc.
• update readme to include gitter.im and slack channels
• more?
• Simple build process (constabulary/gb and Docker?) to keep barrier to entry low even when using high-installation-pain tools like Protoc

Package description should be updated to refer to this project.

See http://godoc.org/github.com/gopheracademy/congo.

The package comment in doc.go should be updated to refer to congo and describe it. :)

This is trivial to fix, and I'd make a PR, I just don't know how exactly you'd prefer to word the description.

CLA? Ownership of Code?

We will always make the app opensource. But what if we decide to provide a hosted service to other conferences in the future? What legal implications are there? Decide now before we accept any contributions.

Inspiration

https://github.com/pythonindia/junction/

Python app with some of these models already thought through.

Embed Caddy & pieces of hugo?

investigate using caddy and hugo's build engine to serve static sites.

Organize weekly hangout / Other communication tools

• Weekly hangout
• Mailing list
• CI
• gitter.im
• gopher slack

Much better documentation about what we're building and why

Fill out the wiki -- what are we building? Why are we building it? What is the goal? What are the pieces? What will it do? Who will use it?

Create basic REST framework

net/http for 100% modularity and compatibility with existing middleware, etc.

Investigate using GoKit for everything we possibly can

because

• Gokit is awesome
• Gokit needs a standard-bearer app people can point at and see how to use it
• Gokit is awesome

Consumer/Producers (front end applications)

Decide on preferred technologies for front-end apps - which would include:

• Conference admin app
• Conference public website / CFP app
• Others?

Angular, React, Go web apps all options.

Create Data Models For initial entities

See wiki for initial list of entities.

add task for generating RSA keys

in makefile

Role based access control

Openshift/Origin has a nice policy system based on JSON files/Go structs, there are also several pre-built packages for PostgreSQL based RBAC in Go.

CI

Drone, Circle, Travis, etc.
