[Act] TPRF/FOSDEM

[Theo van Hoesel]

TPC-Amsterdam-2015 ... that was the last time I touched Act, and build an entire CMS in TT

going to be fun to transform that back into a FOSDEM-2026 / FOSDEM-2027

>> Hey Laurent,
>> yes, I'm doing fine, struggling with 'Networking' jargon at my current position, and gradually moving a codebase to a more flexible and more reliant piece of work.
>> Yes, it is overkill, but it definitely would do the job. It would be a perfect landing page for making announcements etc.
>> Looking at the timeframe, I'm uncertain about the implementation now, we only have two weeks to go, and time is a luxury item :-)
>> But having said that, no harm is done if we would build one as a playground, seee how far we could go with the concept, and be prepared for 2027.
>> If you're in for it, and help me rekindle with that old project, let us create FOSDEM-2026, and start playing, without the time pressure. There will be a few interesting things that need to be extended :-)

>>>> We ( the FOSDEM/TPRF presence team ) need a RSVP system, and we could do it several ways. Using Act might be overkill for registering for a community dinner. But we may actually extend it a bit more to make it look more attractive give, and more informative, instead of relying on Perl.org <http://Perl.org>.
>>>> Most people that would RSVP are probably longstanding Perl die-hards that will have been to any of the events hosted in Europe, and can easily go through the procedure.
