What about adding EventAggregator macro for MoinMoin in wiki.debian.org,
in a similar approach as the FSFE did?

This is how it looks (easy to add events, ical and RSS exports):
https://wiki.fsfe.org/FellowshipEvents

This is the info related to the MoinMoin macro:

https://wiki.fsfe.org/HelpOnEventAggregator

This is how they handle aggregation from "external sources" (ical format):
https://wiki.fsfe.org/EventSourcesDict

(I don't know  the internals, just searched the web looking how to add
calendars to moinmoin).
