[OSCTC-planning] new curriculum page for event websites, and curriculum browser

[Carol Willing]

Shauna, I love the ideas behind both of these tools.

#1 - I think the template is helpful for users at an event and very 
helpful when planning or considering a new event. I like the new (or new 
to me) look of some of the presentations (tools, social norms etc).

#2 - The curriculum browser is useful for users after an event and for 
user groups running mini-events or workshops. I like the ability to view 
only certain items.

If you have some bite size issues that you need help on, the San Diego 
Saturday group has some folks looking for real world projects :)
