tracking of release cadence

[anp]

Waiting to hear if there's an online calendar already available or if I'd need to roll my own release cadence tracking.

According to an old reply of Steve Klabnik, this seems to be the official Rust release calendar.

It does mention when the releases happen, but now what the release numbers are. It may be a good idea to ask whoever maintains this calendar to add this information.

Thanks! In the detailed view it looks like it was created by aturon@mozilla.com.

@aturon -- Is it possible to update the Rust release Google Calendar with version number information so I can track the release cadence on the dashboard?

from irc:

steveklabnik: do the releases happen on weekends too?
dikaiosune: it's always a thursday

(so I think tracking it in the dashboard is probably fine)

Here's the calendar https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=mozilla.com_ts4qudb88i0tbjef8rche4a6v4%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Los_Angeles

But since it's a repeating event it can probably be hardcoded into the dashboard and we can just drop the gcal.

A note for future reference: since my understand of JavaScript is...limited...I'm not sure why this is happening but I only get the correct results if I hardcode the starting dates as one day after they actually occurred. I'll keep an eye on it to see if there are any issues, but it seems to be working fine for now.
