Ah, ok! Thanks for clearing that up for  me :-) I definetly do not have 
a "group:" prefix in cyradm interface in front of the user permissions. 
So, for now I will just use the workaround by making it visible and 
readable for all users since it is not (yet) a problem to make calendars 
visible for all. But it would definetly be great for a future release.
