As a sort of sandbox project I'd like as widespread interest
as can be garnered.  When it's mature enough, moving it
into the conferences project would make sense.  Right now
though, I don't think it does.

The ApacheCon Web site is in our SVN, but access is extremely
restricted because of some things like database access passwords.

This 'reg api' thing has actually grown in my mind to
encompass the whole nine yards -- the complete interface
between our database and outside vendors.  A start was
made a couple of years ago specifically so Santiago could
convert the schedule into iCal format; see

http://apachecon.com//html/sessions.xml/e=MjAwNy9FVQ

That's what I'm supplying to our current producer, who
is going to be having lots of stuff on their Web site
-- like the main schedule.

Since they're going to be managing the schedule now, that
identified a need to have *our* database be updatable by
*them*, so we can track what sessions get cancelled, moved,
et cetera.

So it's getting bigger.
