Hmm, I found the office hours helpful because those were theoretically all relevant to me. The overview you're making is unfortunately more aimed towards chapter offices etc, and includes a lot of events which are out of reach anyway. Having an Overview of All has its merits, but it does mean I will not include it in my google calendar because it would float the whole thing too much.
Somehow it would be nice if there would be a menu selection option - what kind of parts do you want to receive. But that is much harder to maintain I guess...
