Hi,

Some time ago some of us (smoinen in the front) suggested that we would
provide Summit program in such format that mobile apps can use it. That
means perhaps mostly XML. Correct me if i'm wrong. Anyway, timoph and I
discussed this more today at Program Task-force meeting. What we need is
that a) someone or few deves to define loosely what needs to be done and
how, b) creates simple server app that can be included to our server
infrastructure somehow (this app might also run independently). The server
app (let it be called now as AgileProgram) would use XML as base format and
from there it could be transformed to any other needed formats. This would
be a great small project for a few developers. Timoph can correct my
technical mistakes and such.

Those who got interested about the mobile program app before could form the
initial team. Benefits of doing this would be: a) it would serve us at
future events (hopefully there will be more than just this event), and b) we
can generate the program where ever needed in multiple formats. Or is this
some sort of reinventing the wheel? Any thoughts?
