Registration for Code Jams should be in Drupal #6

Open samking opened 12 years ago

Right now, registration is done on Google Docs. Instead, people should sign up for accounts on our site.

-Coder registration should be going into a drupal database rather than a google spreadsheet. Coders should be able to edit their registration and maintain information about themselves that persists after the event. OpenID would be cool to have but nonessential.

This also goes for project registration and any other form of registration we do now.

-project registration should be going into a drupal database rather than a google spreadsheet. Same deal as above. We also would need a blog type page that pulled all of the projects for an upcoming Code Jam together. Each project should be owned by an organization's account so that coders can see an organization's past projects if they want.

Another cool thing that we can do once we get everything to exist as nodes in Drupal is to configure them to work with Google's Rich Snippets: http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=99170. In particular, people, events, and organizations could be richly snippetted.
