This shouldn't be an events calender for FreeBSD conferences, but more
a calender of events where there will be a FreeBSD booth or something
(I like the one on the NetBSD front page).

Of course BSD conferences also qualify for that.

I think there will be definetly enough events to fill this.

This section would probably fit as a section under the 'Support' menu
item on the front page, of course on a separate page.
