Unfortunately this is not directly supported by our authorization model. One option would be to have your authors use CalDAV to view / make changes, and also export the calendar (perhaps in an automated / periodic fashion using our calendarserver_export tool) for publication via http. Clients could then use the subscription feature to view the calendar read-only, without the need for a CalDAV account.
