The bottom line is iCal's delegate UI won't work with the XML configuration
option right now, as iCal requires a directory system to lookup user data.
With the XMl config you can do this: manually configure delegates in the
file via the <proxies> element as you have done. Then create a new CalDAV
account in iCal using the delegate's user/pswd, but set the server address
to the principal-URL of the location or resource (you will have to lookup
the GUIDs for those via Safari). I believe if you do that you will see the
resource/location calendars in the new account and will have the
appropriate delegate access to them.
