[Kde-events] logistic website KDE-promo

[Wendy Van Craen]

Hi,

Whenever I'm reading the promo- or events-mailinglist, I can always  
find thesame problems in organising the event: the logistics:

- which promotional items are available?
- where to get them?
- who to contact?
- how to get them on the event
- ...  and so on ...

I think that things would become lots easier if we constructed sort  
of a logistic website.  What's on the website?

- all available merchandising
- all available flyers, banners, flags
- boothbox (and what's in it)
-  ...  everything that has to do with the logistic part of  
organising a KDE-event or booth


This way it would we very easy to see how much merchandising-stock is  
left, which were the more popular and which weren't.
It would also be possible to see which visibility-materials/boothox  
aren't in use at the moment or on which event they are and when they  
will return.

Offcourse I know that there will be some maintenance needed to keep  
the site up to date.  But this would make things SO much easier for  
people who which to organise a KDE-event.

Maybé the website could work with kind of a login-system, so you can  
for instance only see on which event the boothbox/ ... went, but not  
the confidential information of the person who "ordered" the  
materials.  The confidential information is only seen by the website  
administrator(s), who'll also be in charge of the shipping and  
stocking of the materials.  So the right information gets to the  
right people immediately.

I'm not saying we should change the way of handling the shipping and  
ordering of these event-promo-stuff.  I'm just saying we should  
really consider of changing the way how to contact the people who are  
in charge of these things.

I seriously think it could save a lot of time in searching and asking  
around on the KDE-sites and -mailinglists.
