Hello Hans,
have a look at Semantic MediaWiki [1] and Semantic Result Formats
[2][3]. In combination with Page Forms [4][5] (to provide a firendly
user interface when creating/editing events) and Lockdown [6] extension
you should have some options to work with. As mentioned by others,
LdapAuthentication extension will also be required.
You can use different namespaces to handle different calendars and
control (write) access. And then use queries to display them all
together or seperately. Unfortunately with Lockdown/Semantic MediaWiki
you will only be able to resrict edit permissions. Proper restriction
of read permissions is not that easy.
