+OPENBMC MEETINGS
+================
+This takes the YAML formatted meetings.yaml file and converts to a .ics file
+that can be used as input into a calendar. This process allows for adding
+additional meetings in the future, just by adding another record to the yaml
+file, as well as automating ical generation and email. The tool that is used
+to do the conversion is yaml2ical. Follow the usege and installation
+instructions here:
+
+https://github.com/openstack-infra/yaml2ical
+
+Start by editing meetings.yaml, changing the fields to the needed values. You
+can get more description on the supported fields at the link above.
+
+Once you are happy with the info in the yaml file, run the tool yaml2ical:
+
+yaml2ical -f -y . -o meetings.ics
+
+The -f parameter forces an overwrite of the existing ical file.
