The calendar data needs to be correct, until we have a better entry process, we need to use the table that is vetted and FEC can easily update. That table has different filtering abilities for its data.

What we can do:

  • We can add a full text search on the discription summary if we want to that has been an unused capability in the API- I could see this coming in handy now This is not working in the PR, I think we should roll back this feature, since we were not using it before. We should be able to add it later, I am not sure why it is not working.
  • We could add location search, which is a text search in the location field- This might be a mixed bag because in the data, it can be a state, city or room so it might be more confusing that enlightening but I wanted to list it as an option
  • For category, the categories will change. We can use in the data are: [Open Meetings, Executive Sessions, Public Hearings, Conferences, Roundtables, State Outreach Workshops, Election Dates, Federal Holidays, FEA Periods, Commission Meetings, Reporting Deadlines, Conferences and Outreach, AOs and Rules, Other, Quarterly, Monthly, Pre and Post-Elections, EC Periods, IE Periods, Litigation ]
  • It is also simpler so I think we can do a straight up view- that way changes to the calendar will appear even quicker- I would guess a minute or two in most cases. Now we are doing updates on a 15 min interval.

What we can't do:

  • State filtering
  • Report type filtering because the category changed

Flagging @jenniferthibault @JonellaCulmer and @patphongs on this since this has UX implications, but our options are limited because we need the data to be correct.
