I think this bears discussion and thin that hpc.social does need an events calendar or listing feature. It should not just be a list of all events anywhere that have to do with HPC, in my opinion, however. What we lost in the pandemic and are still breaking best disease prevention practices to reestablish is the ability to interact with people. As vaccines improve and people riskily reengage in person, we are now losing some of the advantages that came with the ability to support remote attendance for events. I think hpc.social can help to keep some of this alive and help with the needs of those who may be immunocompromised or otherwise have difficulty attending events in person by requiring events that want to be posted to have at least one public session available to everyone without cost and with an associated follow-up activity in which people can participate. An example would be the DAAC 2022 workshop on Reducing HPC's Carbon Footprint that will be held next week (https://daac-general.nsfcac.org/daac-2022). To get started, we could just have a form modeled after the ones on the community map project page. We can create more sophisticated automation later. What do you think? |

While discussion a PR for adding CaRCC's content onto the syndicated blog, there was a concern/question about what content should and shouldn't be on the blog.
One of the concerns was that their feed contained a fair few events, which in @vsoch and I's judgement didn't fit on the community blog.
On the other hand, CaRCC is not the only Org, Lab etc. that will have events, educational sessions and so on that may be of interest to those in and around HPC.
I then proposed the following:
