[Viscom-dev] Event listings updated

FYI, we have now moved all the event listings from the wiki over to the
new Drupal site: http://www.osgeo.org/event.

Note it is also now available as an RSS feed:
http://www.osgeo.org/event/feed

Consider it beta until you've tried it for a few months.

Also, if you want/need to post event items, let me or Michael know. We can post them or give you a login to do it (though log in mechanism is in flux at the moment).

Very nice! Please consider to
- use only 1 timezone (currently mixture)
- select UTC/GMT as this reference timezone as "vendor neutral"

I had trouble with the timezone stuff when I added them -- I was able to set a "user locale" sort of thing, but then everything got wierded out.

I asked Frank/Tyler if "time" could be an optional field for this very reason, but it turned out to be nontrivial.

I will try and resolve on Monday.

OK, I have updated all events to reflect their local timezones, and if
the event start/end time is not known I have used 00:00/23:59.

(Interestingly, when you go to create a new event the start/end times
seem to get set to random values...)
