Okay, your first version tends into the right direction. I've created two
groups for testing: "Group-write" and "Group-read". The problem is, when I
do that, that the
group "Group-read" has to choose inside their calender at the top
"Group-write" as user to read their entries. To have automatically the
entries inside their calender, I have to choose them as participants when I
create the entry. So, when I have lots of groups, you'll have every time to
change the calender to read the entries.

The other thing what I don't like is, that the users of Group-Read have the
possibility to do their own calender entries. It should be as easy as
possible, it would be great, if they would not have this possibility and if
they could not change the calendar user.
