I think I've fixed the bug where query string params weren't being used for @wm_au's event URLs, so it's now possible to do things like `https://wikimedia.org.au/events.ics?where=_pageID=4230` (and probably other silly things that break something else, I don't know).
As we consider ways to implement #ActivityPub into our FOSS Community Calendar Ecosystem platform Koalagator, I've been looking over the differing specs for how to specify the event object schema.
Have any other folk wrestled with this?Asking before I get arms deep in this stuff.
For those playing at home...

FEP-8a8e: A common approach to using the Event object type
ActivityStreams defines the Object Type Event. In real-world applications, the event object immediately showed the need for extension. Applications featuring Event objects have often chosen to add additional attributes and clarifications (i.e., interpretations) in order to implement their particular use case. This proposal clarifies and extends the ActivityPub standard to address the needs that have arisen in real-world implementations.

iCalendar Standard (RFC 5545)
