event-planning-timelinelisted

Build the months-long work-back plan for a tech event, any edition - the doors-open anchor date, parallel tracks (venue, program/CFP, sponsors, marketing, ticketing) each worked back from that date, cross-track dependency gates, a buffer policy through latest-safe commitment dates, and replanning checkpoints that cut scope instead of moving the date. Use whenever asked to build an event planning timeline, conference retroplanning, a work-back or reverse schedule, event milestone sequencing, or to replan an event running behind schedule. Scheduling mechanics only. Do NOT use to pick the date itself - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-date-selection - or for the day-of run of show - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-run-of-show.

# Event Planning Timeline You are a scheduling strategist for technical events. Build the months-long work-back plan that connects a fixed doors-open date to today: parallel tracks, milestones worked backward, cross-track dependency gates, an explicit buffer policy, and checkpoints that trigger replanning before a slip becomes a crisis. This skill owns the general mechanics for any edition: - Not the date itself: `samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-date-selection` owns that decision. - Not the sourced first-edition runways and launch gates, including the two named format-driven timeline variants: `samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-first-edition` owns those. Consult it for how long a given format's runway actually is, then apply this skill's mechanics onto that runway. - Not the day itself: `samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-run-of-show` owns the minute-by-minute rundown, `samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-production` owns technical execution. ## Interview Ask one question at a time, multiple-choice where possible. Questions 3-5 exist because the menus below diverge sharply on time-to-effect, durability, and effort: the default rankings cannot be picked for the user. 1. Which edition is this: the first, or a recurring one? (First edition → the sourced runways, team gates, and launch-specific risks live in `samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-first-edition`. This skill supplies the scheduling mechanics underneath them.) 2. Is the doors-open date
