I support this. Good idea.

Also possible: list latest events on top.
And just by the date we can see which is passed.

I think it helps planning. And is just good to see what happens 
everywhere. If it were for inspiration alone.
But I think it will not work to ask people to work on two calendars.
As long as it does not grow too much, I would propose to have it all on 
one page.
Maybe we end up with a section for each year after some time?

Best,
Cor
