This is a long post... the questions are at the end, I hope you read it all! Thanks!
I want to be able to have an "events page" where there will be two primary types of events: "meetings" and "other events". Instead of "add new comment" link at the bottom, I think I want an "add new event" link. When someone adds an event I think I want the "event", content type event, to be created which should automatically add the event to the event calendar and I think it will then also be added to the upcoming events by default, and I want a "story" added to the "events page", and I want an "agenda page" to be created (that contains the agenda and allows comments until after the time of the event), and I want a "minutes page" to be created (that contains the minutes and allows comments after the time of the event). I want the agenda and minutes pages and comments to only be available to users that are "members". I want a the link in the calendar, and the events page to a "the event page" which will contain the orginal story and the agenda and minutes links.
OK? (Yah, that was really clear *grin* ... Sorry.)
Well, right now I have installed: actions, comment, comment_closer, event, eventrepeat, minutes, og (og_block_visibility, og_calendar, og_roles), page, path, path_access, premium, story, and views modules (along with a bunch of others).
And right now, all I have is an "events page" (http://drupal.happydiaperchanging.com/events) that I created that says it will eventually have event info (and I have already set the right sidebar to display the upcoming events block and the events calendar block), and I have created some content of type "event" for a few meetings (with the start and end times/dates, the location and a short description of the meeting) for example: http://drupal.happydiaperchanging.com/node/4
Do I need different modules other than the ones I have already?
Do I somehow create a new content type "meeting event" and "non-meeting event" as a sub-type of the "event content type?
Has someone already done something like this that I can look at a forum post or a handbook page to help me?
Do I just use actions and views to accomplish this?
This is the first "real thing" I have tried to do with Drupal, I hope you can help me! Thanks for any hints....

Oh, I should add that I have looked at groups.drupal: Events
Oh, I should add that I have searched a bit but I must not be using the right key words because I have not found the info... I did find the http://groups.drupal.org/events-in-drupal
events in drupal group, and I read a bit there, but they are talking about developing the "event" content type in the most abstract way (as a time or time period)... I think. *grin* the discussion is sometimes kind of out there. :) Thanks....
