e-Berkeley and Public Affairs hope to be able to offer this public event calendar system to all schools, departments, and campus organizations by the end of 2005. We also plan to make this application open-source and publicly available for any organization that would like to use it. After initial rollout of the application, we hope to release subsequent versions with additional features. Our ultimate goal is to help get the right information to the right person at the right time. Thus, a potential extension of this project may be the creation of a personal calendaring system which uses the architecture of our system. This would allow all members of the campus community to develop a personalized view of the Events occurring on the Berkeley campus, customized to their specific interests and needs.

We believe this project is a fine example of the way User-Centered Design and Document Engineering methodologies can be applied to create applications that are flexible enough to promote collaboration on campus. e-Berkeley plans to continue to partner with SIMS as well as other campus schools, departments and organizations to make this collaborative approach the blueprint for future campus development projects.
