Is this only for 1-on-1 conversations, or also group?
- There are also conversation groups (Zoom/Teams/FB/face-to-face/hybrid), and ideally I'd like a calendaring tool to at least track both, and be able to offer both types of slots to speakers of language X.
- Currently conversation groups IME tend to use Meetup or Discord (not luma) to schedule. Meetup is dying a screaming death these days, but still helpful to interface to it.
- handling the Zoom invite + URL/meeting code/password is also useful secretarial (who is hosting? depends on who's in a fixed location with solid wifi, for that timeslot); Zoom also has audio dialin in various area codes; I only want the ones local to me, not all twenty.
- Having each participant self-rate level in each language is useful for trying to auto-calendar things.
- you might like to optionally link to Duolingo, at least to show each participant nickname, level in languages of interest, maybe thumbnail avatar.
- not every interaction needs to be calendared; sometimes it could be as simple as "You're online and available for next 30min, so is your friend X, do you two want to speak?" and handle the two-sided poll and if both vote yes, set up a call. Like Doodle only better.
