[Noisebridge-discuss] Suggestion - list rooms w/ your schedule

[Christie Dudley]

And here's a bonus for working room scheduling through a unified place:
people have a definitive place to find out what's going on.  If 3 groups are
contending for the same space, then clearly people aren't or can't keep up
with things and we probably need to improve our announcements of events.
