[Proposal] Set up the Calendar plugin in JIRA to provide visibility on release dates

[Vincent Massol]

Thanks to Raffaello we now have our JIRA calendar set up.

You can see it here:
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI? 
report=com.atlassian.jira.ext.calendar:issuecalendar-panel

Or on the main JIRA dashboard page (if you haven't customized it):
http://jira.xwiki.org/

It's also possible to get an iCal stream (very useful for Mac users -  
I can now see the JIRA calendar next to my other other gmail  
calendars, etc):
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/plugins/servlet/calendar? 
projectId=10010&showVersions=true

Of course what it means is that now our dates are more visible so we  
have to be even more careful about keepin them up to date in JIRA and  
honoring them, but that's probably a good thing :)

Cheers,
-Vincent
