I've now connected both calendars to the twitter account now using
ifttt. Unfortunately, there's no easy way to test this. The ifttt
recipes only trigger on new entries in the RSS feed.
The next event we add should trigger a tweet in one of these
formats:
"New #Python #Event: {{EntryTitle}} - {{EntryUrl}}." for events
"New #Python #User #Group #Event: {{EntryTitle}} - {{EntryUrl}}."
for user group events
