Unfortunately, I couldn't be at FOSDEM.
For the Social event and conference calendars project, I know a project
that seems relevant : OpenEventDatabase
(https://github.com/openeventdatabase/)
Manual and functionalities already implemented :
https://github.com/openeventdatabase/backend/wiki
Ideas about this project start on OpenStreetMap datamodel versatility
(key-value for all) and the need of a database for the « when » main
axis (OSM is for the where…).
Christian Quest (OSM France ex-president) start talking about this on
2013 (on hackpad, now unavailable).
He talk about that on 2016 OSM conference :

The database and API start to be implemented on 2016-05.
This project already collect events from existing Open Databases, like
the « Agenda du Libre » (https://www.agendadulibre.org/) and many
OpenData French sources.

The security and events ownership model is still simple. I have ideas to
improve contribution process and collaboration but for this moment not
writed in english…
I know that my suggestion is really late.
I hope this project will help you to reach your goal.
I’m also interested to contribute to a web front-end for the database
you choose.
And to integrate events from others data sources (pyvideo datas, local
cultural and association events…)
Bye
Fred
