While I find the idea commendable, I am not sure about it; being able
to announce one future outage seems within scope of the current format,
while having a list of (recent/current/future) events adds more structural
complexity to something that is otherwise an almost flat format.
(I wish it was entirely flat but sadly json does not have xml:lang…)

Thanks.

The schema probably needs to be ironed out a bit more, with more
specific element definitions, and maybe see if we need more of them.
(especially clearer separation of maintenance, planned maintenance,
and accidents).
