Adam,

Funny thing, I was just mentioning how it would be nice to have a
calendaring solution that would be able to let people pull feeds and
put items on the calendar for Fedora with use in FAS.  I think even
though there's currently no solution quite as good as google calendar
(or apple's iCal) in free software, there are alternatives.

Bongo Project - http://bongo-project.org/Main_Page  (formerly Hula) (GPLv2)
Bedework - http://www.bedework.org/bedework/ (BSD License)
DAViCal - http://rscds.sourceforge.net/ (GPL)

I'm sure there are others, but I think a self-sustaining calendar that
could integrate with the Fedora Account System (FAS) and make it so
that people can create events that could get pushed to a central
calendar which others might subscribe.  Something like this would be
awesome and I'd be happy to help you get it started.  Maybe one of the
above programs can meet our needs, or maybe we need to look into
something else.

Cheers,

Clint
