Hi, I'm brand-new to Drupal, and wondering if someone could advise me
as to how to go about doing the following:
I would like to have an event management section of my web site, which
will have a calendar view of various events, each of which is assigned
a category.  I (the superuser) should be able to add these of course,
but it would be helpful if project leads for each category could post
their own to it.  In addition to the web view, users should be able to
subscribe to it through a simple form asking for their e-mail address
and a set of checkboxes allowing them to indicate which categories
interest them.  They should be able to choose to get notifications of
when a new event is published, reminders of events n amount of time
before it, or both.  These things should also be available as RSS/Atom
feeds.  It would be ideal if the subscription checkbox system were
extended to the entire site, allowing a user to subscribe for instance
to events of categories "parties" and "meetings", blog posts by users
4 and 17, and all nodes tagged as "news".  It would be best if the
subscriptions could be done both within the context of Drupal user
accounts as well as for the "anonymous" user, requiring only that they
put a valid e-mail address in the form, for minimal confusion for more
basic users.

Can someone point me in the right direction?
