You can publish your free/busy information onto say a
webserver/ftpserver and get some distance with that approach. You can
query others' fb info in the same way. So this lets you check if
someone else is available when scheduling a joint meeting, then
Outlook will e-mail them the invite, then they'd import it into their
calendar. So it's not full group calendaring, but it's dead easy.
