Good question! There is, but I suspect a tweak or two to
https://github.com/plugorgau/plugorgau.github.io could make it clearer.

We've had the calendar on the front page to make it obvious, but I don't
think it really belongs there. Maybe if it wasn't a full-frame Google
embed, just a sidebar? but I think it would be better if removed.

The "main" page for that is https://www.plug.org.au/events/ , with the
link under the calendar.

Say... Anyone have a script to sort ical events? It's pretty ugly to
diff when the feed changes. Maybe with https://pypi.org/project/icalendar/ ?

We've had a long standing need for a little automation to check if other
calendars are in sync with our main one (when we use them).
- https://github.com/plugorgau/calendar-check
  - to help with sending email reminders; and
  - if they are out-of-sync, send alerts?

Nick.
