For the release date, the issue is that you have multiple tasks, so
potentially different target dates. An approach would be to include a
[[Target date::]] property on the iteration pages, like I did here:
http://community.hackit.cx/wiki/Alpha_1.2 

Then you can retrieve the value this way:

{{#show: Alpha 1.2 | ?Target date}}

Also, instead of repeating the code to display the summary, you can
include it with a template that takes a parameter:

{{Iteration overview|Alpha 1.2}}

One way that should work is to add multiple date properties to an
iteration page - cf http://community.hackit.cx/wiki/Alpha_1.2 

I've:
      * Added an Iteration category (to limit the calendar query to
        those pages)
      * Added a second date property (remember you need to add a page to
        specify that the property has a date type - cf
        http://community.hackit.cx/wiki/Property:Review_date )
      * Installed the compound queries extension to allow to show the
        aggregated result of multiple queries
      * Added a calendar query to
        
http://community.hackit.cx/index.php?title=Tasks_follow-up&month=10&year=2010 

However, it doesn't work : ) I've asked there
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:Semantic_Result_Formats/calendar_format
 , we'll see if we get an answer. Could be a bug, or I could have made a 
mistake.
