Maybe not quite litterally, but after marking my favourite talks in the JuliaCon programme, I chose to export the .ics file and import it into my calendar. I assumed that would only export and import the selected favourites, but alas, I now have a calendar full of every single talk at the conference! Could this be fixed somehow? Or at least a warning included?

We use Pretalx which itself is an open-source project, so I would recommend posting your feedback to them [GitHub - pretalx/pretalx: Conference planning tool: CfP, scheduling, speaker management](https://github.com/pretalx/pretalx)

You might be interested in this topic which shows how to only export the starred entries:

> Since I couldn’t find an obvious way to download all the talks I had favourited, I wrote a quick script to download just the talks that I had starred on the JuliaCon schedule website. As this might be helpful to others, I put the script + guide in [this gist](https://gist.github.com/JamieMair/8e3c6e5cf5873635ccf81296b6b8399a).
