well the way I do it (For my family calendar)... is this...
1. create a user to hold the calendar and don't share the passwd..
<user>
<uid>shared-calendar-user</uid>
<guid>98714-12349817234-12341234-12341234</guid>
<password>secured</password>
<name>Family Calendars</name>
<first-name>Family</first-name>
<last-name></last-name>
<cuaddr>mailto:fam...@local.local</cuaddr>
<proxies>
<member type="groups">alluser</member>
</proxies>
</user>
2. create the group "alluser"
<group>
<uid> alluser </uid>
<guid>38475234-23452345-23452345-13554</guid>
<password>doesn't matter</password>
<name>All people</name>
<members>
<member type="users">user1</member>
<member type="users">user2</member>
</members>
</group>
<group>
Job done..
