A calendar is UP!

Please add your meetings via a PR @ https://github.com/CentOS/Calendar

Please subscribe to the calendar via 
https://git.centos.org/raw/sig-core!calendar.git/master/output!irc-meetings.ical

A web page will be coming once Jim and I connect to figure out where it 
should land.

Feedback is appreciated.

There is one known issue - it is a github Issue.

regards,

bex
