- Quincy talked about the desire to make it each for meetup groups, like freeCodeCamp study groups, to coordinate events. In the case of fCC, this could be thousands and the cost of hosting these on other platforms isn't sustainable for fCC and many other organizations around the world.
- The user interface (UI) is in good shape and there aren't any major gaps in the UI.
- The libraries are in place, but the application doesn't have authorization implemented.
- The MVP Issues are up-to-date and good issues for contributors to review
- Event changes are currently only send over email. There's still a desirable feature to update Google calendars with update changes, but this would be a late MVP feature.
- The hope is to have the app deployed for freeCodeCamp to test in the summer.
- Thanks to gikf (sanity on chat) and Oliver for getting the schema up to date
- There's currently no user interface for banning users and Tom asked if this is an MVP label
- We moved the Demo video feature to the Roadmap issues since Oliver already did one for the fCC July 2021 Summit
- We moved the [Search bar feature to the Roadmap since there will initially be about 10 fCC chapters testing the first iteration of the application.
- Closed issues on the Roadmap are for future consideration, after the MVP, and we will re-open those issue as needed.
- We talked a good deal about updating calendars, like Google Calendar, automatically using a .ics file. We have previous research that suggests Meetup.com and Eventbrite .ics files do not update calendars when an event changes, or when a new .ics file is sent. However, Google Calendar uses a
METHOD:REQUEST
version of the .ics files that does automatically update events on a Google Calendar when an updated .ics file is received in a Gmail inbox. - Quincy suggested about 90% of freeCodeCode newsletter recipients use Google / Gmail and he believes a focus on Google Calendar API is warranted and he shared concerns about if the .ics/iCal/webcal file direction is the most usable and reliable way to keep calendars up to date.
- The fCC team talked about trimming the initial scope of role-based authentication to lighten the MVP. The organizer role may not be implemented until later to cut down on the somewhat duplicate needs of owners, administrators, and organizers
