I had a bit of time and started hacking up a simple version of this:

    https://github.com/kragniz/release-schedule-generator

The output of this may or may not be standards-compliant, but google calendar
appears to accept it. You can see example output here:

    https://kragniz.eu/pub/schedule.ics

There's currently no support for project-specific events or RST output, but
these can be added later if people think this current implementation isn't too
bad.

Feel free to send feedback or (even better) pull requests in my direction if
this seems okay.

Cheers,
Louis
