 * For a free plugin, I guess it’s okay. Probably the best option if you don’t want
   to spend money on a timetable plugin. But it still takes some time to figure 
   out how it works and to decide at what, in your use case, should be an event.
   In the case of a conference or workshop, intuitively, you’d think that the conference
   is the event and it is possible to set it up that way. But the better option 
   is probably to define single sessions as your event (and if you have recurring
   sessions of the same type, they can be timeslots within that event).
 * Anyway, once you figured it out, it basically works. Except that I had some issues
   with layers on my website. Some of the events in the time table ended up above
   the sticky menu while others slid through underneath (as it should be).
 * The biggest limitation, however, is that this plugin doesn’t allow you to have
   parallel sessions and the header image on wordpress.org is missleading in that
   respect as it shows a timetable that clearly has such a parallel event. (I know,
   MotoPress will say that you can create parallel events by creating two columns
   for the same day and selecting the option that merges identical events across
   columns, but that is not the ideal workaround since in the back-end it will lool
   like you have two parallel sessions even if these in fact represent the same 
   single session.
