A few months back, Aaron mentioned on his blog that kde needs a little web application for managing sprints, as apperantly it takes a lot of manual effort to coordinate one, at the moment.
Two months ago, while i was doing some other kde-www project (more on that later), i told him that im interested in creating it and 3 weeks ago, recieved an email from Mario Fux (unormal) that he is planning a sprint (Randa 2011) and he would use this tool.
I started developing it, and it has been used for Randa 2011\’s page. Some of the features are:
1) Chihuahua look (kde.org\’s theme)
2) Identity.kde.org intergration
3) Location/Sprint manager
4) Ability to send email to participants
5) Participant registration
6) CSV export tool (other formats could be easily added, if you need)
7) Smart widgets (give a url to participant, it will automatically change to \’Im going to\’/\’Im at\’/\’I attended\’ depending on the date
8 ) Sponsorship management
If you are planning to host/coordinate a sprint, using this tool helps you a bit. Just poke me (im emilsedgh on freenode, or emilsedgh on gmail) and i\’ll setup a new one and will give you the access rights to manage it.
If you used this tool to register on Randa sprint, i would like to know your comments and recieve some feedback.
Also, i would like to thanks Ben Cooksley and Tom Albers. They helped me A LOT. and they did it very fast, every time i bothered them. Thanks guys.
