Groups and Parties can have a collective calendar that stands apart from the private individual calendar. This would be useful to display calendar events for the public, for whom there is no individual calendar. For example, ArsDigita can display a schedule of upcoming bootcamps, lectures and other approved events on a calendar on arsdigita.com.
