Well, even that takes some effort for DSA to get the machine up and
running, help the service maintainer get hooked up with user

contemplating there is some impact for DSA.

Both can be provided in the same feed. While it is not hard for people
to access multiple feeds one by one, having some Debian uber-feed on a
single personalized URL may go further to maximize participation.

What I meant was a quick way to let people submit data in a format
suitable for iCalendar, even if it is just option (a), creating a VCS in
collab-maint and letting people add their own local feed URLs to a text file
