Kylie,
My recommendation is for you to build a submission form for news. We
have the 'formail.pl' perl script installed on the system, you could
have the form content directed to you by email for vetting. You could
then add it manually.

If there are enough event submissions to make a more automated system
worthwhile then we could put one together for you. For what it is
worth, the Linux Australia one operates manually.

regards
Terry
