Not sure exactly what you were trying to edit there, but it looks like you
were trying to edit ACLs on a principal resource, whereas what you really
need to do is edit ACLs directly on the calendar you want to share. But
note comments below...

Delegation is the best way to do this. At present that is most easily setup
using iCal and does require iCal bound to OD.

If you really want to use ACLs, then set the ACLs on
/calendars/users/user02/calendar to give /principals/__uids__/XXX (whatever
the principalURL is for user01) read access.
(2) can be done using Mulberry but you do need to find the __uids__ URL for
user01 - that can be done by using Safari to navigate to
/principals/users/user01/ and looking at the resulting page.
In my spare time I have been working on a little command line tool that
will allow browsing of a WebDAV/CalDAV hierarchy, plus some direct
manipulation of ACLs and delegates. This tool would allow you to easily set
ACLs and delegates from the command line without the need to be bound to OD
etc. I am hoping to push this tool out to the open source site soon. I'll
post to this list once that happens.
