Not right at the moment, because to do it properly, you have to write the
ics file yourself (Evolution loves timezones too much, and rightly so).

However, I have a proper, editable calendar tool in the works at the moment,
which will allow us to have a subscribeable master calendar *and* categories
(such as "Release Team", "GNOME Conferences", "Tech Conferences", "GNOME
Historical Days", etc) without a lot of manual labour.

For now, a 2.7 series calendar is a good start. ;-)
