I used the "Schedule a Post Mortem for this event!" link, and a calendar event was created 10 minutes in the future for a mailing list that included many attendees. This resulted in the slight embarrassment of inviting people to the wrong thing.

The time and invite list were opaque to me before using the button. I wasn't expecting the link to automatically create the event. I expected it to pre-fill some event fields that I could edit before saving and sending invitations.

I've talked to others that made the same mistake.

My suggested alternatives:

  1. Have it pre-fill a new and un-saved calendar event that can be edited before saving and sending invites
  2. Or state in the link what will happen. "Schedule a Post Mortem for {time} with {attendees}"
