Feature Idea: sessionize-like behaviors #1

Open dustinsgoodman opened 1 year ago

dustinsgoodman commented 1 year ago

The main platform code is specific towards conference sessions/speakers. However, some conferences will get speakers and their sessions from a common CFP system such as Sessionize. It would be cool to enable this behavior on the platform. Right now, event's have specific session and speakers assigned. We could introduce PlatformSession & PlatformSpeaker models that are replicates of these existing models that act as a Speaker's profile and dashboard that they could later use to submit to different conferences. The session/speaker info could get cloned into the event once the CFP closes and the talks are accepted. This will create duplicate records but this would allows speakers to continue to update their portfolio of talks but let the events/conferences have static copies to manipulate for their specific needs.

Functionality could later be added to notify event coordinators of changes to a session/speaker portfolio and allow them to accept the updates rather than making speakers email those changes to coordinators and hoping the changes get made.
