Re: [PHP-WEBMASTER] Dealing with CFP / Conference dates

Would it make sense to extend the tool so when you select CFP and
Conference as categories to ask for both dates and content? Right now the
organisers have to return after end of CFP and provide new content and we
have to update it. I do not necessarily have an issue with updating the
entries, but I would so love to automate this and do it once and once only.

Thoughts?
