	Isn't calendar system administration an implementation issue? Why
shuould the protocol enforce it? 
	Is the existing ICAP command set limiting from creating such an
admin account that will have some privileges to limit access to calendars?

I do not think we want to create a "Administrative protocol" per se, but we
clearly want a definition for objects that need to be managed such as ACLs
(objects that are not defined in ical) and a protocol to manipulate those
objects.

Having a conceptual notion of an administrator is probably a good thing to
help define the critical requirements, but I agree with you in that it
should not be a goal to create an administration protocol.
