FTR: I think I found out how it works, at least in develop (probably
also back then)

The calendar owner must grant the DELEGATE permission to users which
may create new events in the calendar. The event creator gets the
CREATOR permission set on the events he created. So if a user has
DELEGATE permissions and CREATOR permission set is read/edit/delete,
the user can (only) add new events and read/edit/delete the events he
created himself.
