After further research and consideration I will opt for your method. Does this allow the public calendar that is being published to synch to a device , like a users calendar can? Also, am I understanding correclty that it can be shared with external (non-AD users?)

As opposed to letting Exchange publish it, you’re using the Outlook client to publish to a WebDAV server. The main difference being that the one you linked to requires an Outlook client to always publish the latest information as opposed to publishing the direct link into Exchange that would have the latest content available. Plus the WebDAV server method requires additional configuration/resources anyways. With the Exchange method you can set the sharing policy for the maximum amount of details that can be published. If you only wanted something like Free/busy being available, etc. I personally like not having to rely on Outlook clients for “automation”. Either way the WebDAV method is assuming you have no security/privacy/etc policy problems with anonymous access to this type of Calendar content. I just know it works from testing and provided it as a potential solution.

You can then send a WebDAV/CalDAV invite to the user(s) that want to see it on the device. They just have to click on it and it will add it to their list of calendars on the devices. Note that this does allow an anonymous connection to the calendar through the internet. Though you can pick the mailboxes this applies to in the Calendar Sharing Policy you create using the articles above. The URL will be unique and not easily discoverable, but the message/invite can be forwarded to anywhere and anyone could subscribe to it to retrieve the information from the calendar. If your CAS servers are behind something like a TMG server that does pre-authentication you would have to allow non-authenticated connections.
