A) make a directory that's read- and writeable by all users
(say /usr/share/calendars)

copy the calendar file of each user from
$HOME/.kde/share/apps/korganizer
in this directory.
cp 
$HOME/.kde/share/apps/korganizer/std.ics /usr/share/calendars/$USER-calendar.ics

log in as first user, start korganizer, change standard calendar ressource to 
the new location, add the other calendars as _READ ONLY_ 
Repeat with the other users on your system

Now every user can see the calendars of the other users, but can only change 
his own calendar... 

----

B) If you're sure, that only one user is logged in at a time and is using 
korganizer you may write a small script using chmod to restore permissions to 
a user-writeable ics file after closing korganizer

C) or you may set up a nfs-server and use "squash-all" to get your desired 
permissions on every file...

I would not recommend B and C... go for A
