Thanks for pitching in. COD looks good.
On their site (http://usecod.com) I found the obligatory table of unfair
feature comparisons. One of these is to an out-of-date WordPress plugin.
Any WP suggestions?
('m not partial, but as of earlier today it looks like I might be using
it for other, but affiliated reasons.)

Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] Conference site backend
Let me try and ask this again, with less ambiguity:
What built-in CMS functionality or plugin have you used to assist you in
managing a conference schedule and registration?
Among other things, I'm in the market for a new CMS. So rather than the
specialized tool that Francis suggested, I'm looking for a multi-purpose
platform or a platform I can wrangle to serve multiple purposes.
P.S. Confusingly, I switched my CODE4LIB subscription to a different email.

Hi list,
Not exactly related to libraries, but:
I'm putting together a site for the annual conference of a library
consortium. Last year we had paired a static site with an event
service
(Sched) to manage the schedule and provide workshop sign ups. This
time we'd like to move everything under one umbrella.
Any recommendations for a conference backend?
I'm looking for an open source solution I can deploy on a shared
hosting plan. I'm not picky about the CMS. The current iteration is
put together locally using a static site generator, so I can switch to
whatever.
Give Open Conference a looksie
