As the person that maintains the plug calendar and has for some time, 
this is completely false.  I have never received a request directly sent 
to me, or on the plug-webdev mailing list or sent via any one of the 
numerous web forms on the site itself or even a message forwarded to me 
from someone else about any changes you wanted to the calendar.

You may have posted something somewhere, but you can hardly expect to 
just fling out info in random places and have it magically end up where 
you want it, although I would have made the changes to the calendar had 
I run across it.  If your event was one that I would have been able to 
attend, I would have been aware of any issues you were having and would 
have made the changes myself.

I try to keep the calendar as up to date as I can given the info that 
I'm given and it's been mostly accurate over the years with the odd 
exception given to the time when the feed from the AzLoco group had a 
time zone issue that caused the times to shift around.  There are also 
currently double listing for some plug events because one is coming from 
PLUG's calendar and the other coming from the AzLoco calendar.  It's 
something that needs to be worked out but I consider it fairly low 
priority right now since they are both accurate.
