Hello,one of the items discussed in Bern was to set-up a conference planning tool. Last time I checked (a few years ago), everything was a big mess, and every organizer was hacking their favorite tool to an extend that made re-use and/or upgrading impossible. ;-) Feedback from this years' conference organizers was also that such a tool is missing. Basic features needed are call for papers, registration of participants and speakers, and an easy (!) scheduling. I think of something similar that schools use for planning their schedules - you add some dependencies and limitations, and then a few proposals are made.
Before thinking about coming up with our own solution, we should check what existing tools are on the market, or if other projects are working on that (I heard rumors that other FLOSS projects are already funding efforts here).
If someone has more insight than I have, or volunteers to have a look, that'd be great! :-)
