Cool. So it works, very nice. I am using Mozilla Sunbird.
Hopefully the other committees also come up with such a calendar,
then syncing will be easy (and it could also issue an alarm popping
up).

OK, seems to work. It asks me the SVN password which means that
I need to request a role at
 https://edu.osgeo.org/servlets/ProjectMembershipRequest

Question is, which one is able to write to SVN?
- Observer: Read-only access to project code; can also submit issues;
'observer' of project
- Project Contributor: Developer/User that contributes code via Project Tracker
- User: User or application developer that makes use of the software
in the project

I have requested 'Project Contributor' - we'll see if that's sufficient.

Once you grant me the role, I'll test again to modify it.

Looks promising so far!
