This question is coming from the TEEP BoF prep call that was in the
middle of the night for me at least.  Pre-BoF prep calls don't have
the same requirements, although Hannes has said he would provide
minutes.  I would also like a calendar and suggest it to my chairs to
provide an ics file when they announce, but a tool to do this would be
much better.
