[CQ-Contest] Defacto Calendar

[Jack Brindle]

This has been done for iCal, the Apple calendar system. Mac / iCal  
users can just subscribe to the calendar and it shows up on the  
screen with periodic updates. The downside is that you need someone  
to diligently update the master the way WA7BNM does. The owner of the  
master calendar on iCal at times is not quite as diligent as we would  
like, although he does do a pretty good job.

This seems like another area where a standard method of publishing  
contest information would be handy. The first area? Why a standard  
contest format/logging/cabrillo document would make contest program  
setup much nicer. I'm just happy that we at least have Cabrillo. It's  
a step. thanks, Trey!
