But why not having a Calendar for all projects. One might be able to

Apache CON or a retreat
I think this would be really good. However, I don't think we need to dictate
where projects keep their calendar stuff. The starting point is for projects
to select a solution that suits them and make us aware of an iCAL feed.
ComDev can then create a calendar that imports these various feeds. Moving
forwards we might provide a funky front end that allows feeds of certain
types to be aggregated into a personal feed - but lets not get ahead of
ourselves ;-)
Yes, sounds better.
Finally we "simply" would need an iCAL feed aggregator maybe similar
to planet.apache.org
Is the code for planet somehow extensible for this task? Might be a start
The python code behind PlanetApache is open source:

A search for "ical aggregator" turned up a simple looking python script:

So who is going to create the comdev feed and add Grants Lucene feed as a
first one. I know ComDev have discussed having a calendar of events in the
past, if we provide some visibility for it maybe we can actually make it
worthwhile.

I'm curious, do any projects have shared calendars? For instance, the
thought occurred to me that I might put up a Google Calendar for Lucene or
Mahout that is public read-only, but committers have write control on it.
On the calendar, we could put things like potential release dates,
reminders for PMC actions (such as review potential committers or do board
reports). Community members could submit "patches" for community related
events such as conferences, meetups, hackathons, etc.
