[LUNI] Centralized Calendar

[Chou Enlai]

I think we should also scrape so we can get a wider
range of events that are relevant to LUNI anyways, and
then we can generate multiple webcal calendars (such
as LUNI proper, ALL, etc).  I once wrote a script to
extract events from mailinglists, we could reuse that:

http://frdcsa.onshore.net/webcalendar/calendar.html. 
I also wrote an information extraction program that
automatically extracts relational data from websites,
but I think the methodology is not as good as the
GeekEventAggregator, which we could reimplement if we
can't obtain the source.

Cheers,
Andrew
