create / find a planning tool

[aoloe]

as discussed, we will use formidable to let the people submit the talk proposals.

for each submission a post is automatically created.

we should try to find an interactive way to plan the slots by using the metadata in the posts.

proposal:

• create a wordpress plugin
• that uses fullcanendar.io
• to show posts with a specific type ("Talk" in our case)
• in a list of items (with no start and end time) that can be scheduled
• moving the items to the grid sets the start and end time
• it should be possible to allow multiple calendars per page (multiple rooms, separate talks and workshops, ...)
• a setting to set which fields are to be shown in the list, in the grid
• a link in the grid to edit each post
• a way to show remarks about each posts (like a tooltip on hover with remarks on which day is ok; or an info icon that is only shown if the remarks are not empty)
• a way to send a post per email to each main conferencer.

http://fullcalendar.io/ is a js library that seems to nicely fit. i will try to make a demo page.

http://fullcalendar.io/js/fullcalendar-2.2.5/demos/external-dragging.html looks like what we need...
