Please take a look at the PKP project, specifically Open Conference System: http://pkp.sfu.ca/?q=ocs Synopsis: Open Conference Systems (OCS) is a free Web publishing tool that will create a complete Web presence for your scholarly conference. OCS will allow you to: - create a conference Web site - compose and send a call for papers - electronically accept paper and abstract submissions - allow paper submitters to edit their work - post conference proceedings and papers in a searchable format - post, if you wish, the original data sets - register participants - integrate post-conference online discussions You can also take OCS 2 out for a test drive on our server<http://pkp.sfu.ca/ocs2/demo/testdrive/>. The login is "admin" and the password is "testdrive". This installation will be regularly purged of all data, so please do not use it for anything other than making a short-term evaluation of the software. miles On Fri, Oct 19, 2012 at 7:40 AM, Gary McGath <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > On 10/18/12 6:08 PM, Brian McBride wrote: > > Greeting! > > > > I was wondering if anyone out there has found or knows of a good open > source solution for event scheduling?
