To all,

I have been tasked, with some funds, to develop a simple event
registration product for Plone.    I have looked at this product
http://plone.org/products/eventregistration, but it is not actively
being developed.  My goal is to create a product that is generic enough
to meet the needs of the wide range of groups that need simple event
registration. 

Here is a list of criteria thus far

* Each Event/Signup? is a folderish type that will store Registrants
* The Registrant type must be configurable, preferably TTW using
ATSchemaEditorNG?  In my experience the data that groups need to capture
event is so different (for example: canoe type) that trying to come up
with a set of fields that will fit all does not seem realistic.
* The Event must be able to set both a maximum registrant size and a
waiting list size
* Registrant is sent and email upon submission (workflow script)
* Anonymous user can create Registrant (workflow script similar to
CMFMember)
* Simple mechanism to email current registrants
* Mechanism to dump data as CSV file

I am putting this out there to see if there is interest in
developing/reviewing the code and whether the initial design makes
sense.  Ideally this should probably live in the collective.   One
question I have is whether I should attempt to pickup and extent the
existing EventRegistration product or come up with a new name
(SignUpSheet?) since the end product will be quite a bit different in
terms of code. 

Feel free to contact me if you have any interest in contributing to this
project.
