Create "add to calendar" link in registration confirmation email
A link for iCal or google calendar so that when registrants get a confirmation email they can immediately put it on their personal calendar. Primarily thinking about events, but would be great for trips too!

This idea is changing to "In Progress" as we have made progress towards adding more calendar options! We have completed step 1 of this project by adding iCal and Google Calendar links to all activities and events on the website (see activity/event landing page for details). Step 2 will be adding these links to registration emails which we hope to complete soon. Once that is complete, this task will be marked as completed.

Include Badges in the Committee Roster Downloads
Please include awarded badges in committee roster downloads as well. Currently, they are only visible when viewing the committee roster. Adding them to the download would prevent committees (like the Climbing Committee with its many leader badges) from having to duplicate this information in the notes section, resulting in a cleaner look and less manual work.

Generate iCal calendar for any course activities, regardless of participation status
I often have to manually transcribe the multiple events from a course into my personal google calendar. This is error prone and time consuming, and I bet most people do this.
It would be awesome if the "course requirements" section of a course page that shows all the events would also contain a link to the iCal of that course so I can add all the events to my personal google calendar with a single click.
This would be useful to do with any course, not just the ones I am signed up with:

This idea is changing to "In Progress" as we have made progress towards adding more calendar options! I want to note that the final solution we are implementing differs from the original request as there is no singular course "activity" download customized to a particular person - but all course activities (and regular activities) now have iCal and Google Calendar links shown on their landing page. This will allow someone to add this activity to their calendar regardless of their participation status.
Our next step is to include these easy calendar links to our registration emails. Once that is done we will mark this task as complete.

View PDF files stored on the website in the browser
Allow PDF (and other browser viewable files) to be viewed in the browser.
The Seattle Sea Kayaking Committee is storing minutes as PDF documents. When you click on the file name (blue) what happens depends on the browser you are using. Some browsers (Firefox) allows the user to choose to download or view in a browser window. Other browsers (Safari and Chrome on Mac) always download the file.
If I just want to view the file, having it downloaded to my computer is inconvenient. Now I must navigate to the downloaded file, open it, and later decide if I want…
