Oooh, that would work for me :).

That also works for me. Making the site more offline friendly would still
be good.

> The desire for a single source of truth for schedule data seems to be the more relevant topic here.

SSOT is always relevant.

For consuming, an export, API or repository will work for what I want. I
can turn any of the 3 into whatever I want.

The xml link will work now that I know about it. Being able to get diffs
would be nice, but I can generate those on my own as well. It probably
works for most of our attendees that want to customize as well.

Adding data is a different story. The main optimization there would be to
not need guidebook or have something similar that can be auto-populated.
SSOT FTW :).

ciao,

Basically, you want a data only representation of the schedule that you'd want the whole world to have unrestricted access to, and which should be static enough that you needn't have an API. We could go with something microformat oriented like hCalendar/hEvent. You can shove that into a cheap CDN and never feel load on your web server again. ;-) The closest I'd want to come to an API for at least the raw schedule information would be something like CalDAV (and for something like that, we can probably get away with just publishing to Google Calendar or similar services).
