Title:
  Allow team to import events from an iCal source

Status in LoCo Team Portal:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The Belgian LoCo Team already has an event calendar on its website.
  And I bet many LoCo Teams already have their own calendars managed
  through various solutions. Currently, the only way to add events to
  the LoCo Directory is to add have a team member to add them manually.

  This means that if such a team want to maintain it's calendar on the
  LoCo Directory and duplicate it on its own website, events must be
  added to the LoCo Directory by a team member then imported on the team
  website using the LoCo Directory API (or iCal feed, if available).
  Which require custom code since the LoCo Directory doesn't expose the
  events information in a any importable standard format.

  It would be nice to have the option to import events and, as a side
  effect, venues from external sources.

  It would probably increase usage of the LoCo Directory as a central
  community agenda. It also allow the LoCo Directory events management
  to be kept simple while enabling teams to use more powerful tools if
  wanted or needed.

  It's likely that most solutions used by LoCo team support iCal export
  to stable URLs so this could be used as input format.
