Marc and Dre,
I will review the several PRs you noted this week. I used RedHat linux when I worked semiconductor design. I can easily build a centOS 6.9 or 7.5 server on the cloud service I use (Digital Ocean). Linux is odd with the number of distribution but for most part they interchangeable once they are setup.
Project requirements
=====================
- calendars
Tournaments
Leagues
Company based
Single shared calendar for organization/event
- Users
Projects will not have individual users (calendar for one organization)
mostly controlled on the backend of a web interface
- Ability to filter shared calendars based on keywords (Leagues for Schools)
Swimming vs Basketball
Baseball vs Track and Field
Simpler answer: have distinct calendar for each sport
- Currently the leagues for my high school and middle school kids do not even offer a calendar
They switched to an app
I see this as backwards, prefer to see everything in one place
Questions
==========
- What is the expected timeframe to complete the move to python3.x?
Implementation of a calendar services can wait for now.
- Is there any plans to look at swift instead of python?
I am implementing my php classes in swift for web development. I think when I get past the learning curve it will be much better than php.
