Where..? I've looked on the website and can't find any reference to an XML format. Perhaps there should be a "Developers" link with this information on it..? > schedule (using PyCon Italy last year data).

Plus, not all talks in there will actually make it to > schedule. This is *exactly* what I'd like. The more data, sooner, the better. Also, it'd be interesting information to see which of the submitted talks/tutorials make it through (perhaps with an indication of the number of votes too). As for the way the data is organised, from Fluidinfo's point of view, it's designed to evolve with requirements and schema changes. As the schedule gets announced I'll just add it as required. In any case I think it's absolutely wonderful that you're going to let us get our hands on this data. I'm excited to see what people build as a result! Perhaps there should be a wiki or something where developers can share ideas or point to stuff they've built..? (Once again, happy to help.)
