https://git.centos.org/summary/sig-core/calendar.git
mirrored at https://github.com/CentOS/Calendar for external direct
contrib. You should have access to push/pull from both locations at this
point.

let folks PR at github, and you can then accept/deny. folks from the
core sig can also help cover if you need. I dont anticipate this being
super high velocity.

is it possible for you to run this gen on your machine and only push the
ics file back into the git repo, we can then have a url that points to
the file, and thats the end of that ( i.e the file hosted at
git.centos.org itself )

this would be nice for www.centos.org; I'll let you workout with Jim as
to how and where this might slot in.
