I would like to have some help maintaining and overhauling this list. Is anyone interested?

@brittanystoroz @joshsimmons checked again, and it looks like I already have you as maintainers! Are you interested in helping me overhaul and improve this list?

Great. Definitely should keep this one up to date.
I'm wondering though if we want to separate it by years so that it's also easy to track past events?

Makes sense to me. Let's do that. Alphabetization is a largely useless schema for organizing unknown things.

@lirantal If you'd be keen to helping out, PRs accepted. :) Happy to make you a maintainer after a couple of edits are merged.

I'm definitely interested in helping out, but looking at the new format I'm not exactly sure how to make it work with some conferences. What should I include for the location for conferences that move, like PyCon or RubyConf? Or for conferences that have many recurring dates and locations like AlterConf?

Answer 6 · 2017-08-03T14:48:12.000Z

How about: location: variable? For conferences with recurring dates, use an array. We can change the format to make it easier. :)

Sounds good. I love this list idea, but I think I'm just a little confused between the Conferences and the Past Conferences section. Should each year of a conference be treated as a distinct entity? Should we be proactive about moving conferences that have passed from the top to the Past Conferences section? I know I'm coming into this in the middle of a redesign, but from the docs it's a little difficult to tell what the intent is for the new format.

sure, also category by theme

Should each year of a conference be treated as a distinct entity?

Nah. If it was awesome once, it should be awesome in the future. Maybe let's just stop archiving awesome conferences that happened, and only look to ones that are going to repeat? Perhaps an age limit would help - if two or more years ago, then remove it.

Should we be proactive about moving conferences that have passed from the top to the Past Conferences section?

See above.

@zzz6519003 and @thejessleigh happy to make anyone a contrib. let me know.

Any help needed? Are you still willing to keep this going?

Answer 11 · 2018-02-02T12:53:57.000Z

Help would be great. I am not actively sourcing conferences at the moment.
