Is there a way of finding this info out?

Not really....it could be anyone who has permission to write to that
calendar. This doesn't get audited. I don't think you can see any 'owner'
properties in the calendar item itself - but you might try posting in
microsoft.public.outlook to see if anyone there has an idea.

But this information must be stored somewhere, because public folder items
can have different permissions for their owner and for other people...

if you change the "view" on the calendar to "by category", then add the
"From" field, you can see who created the item...

It may live in the item, but that's still an Outlook thing, not an Exchange
one. It is not audited.

Outlook thing.

Description of the Calendar logging feature in Outlook
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841615/

Microsoft Office Outlook has a feature to log calendar transactions.
Because of the Calendar logging feature, calendar transactions that
are generated by client features, by user actions, by the object
model, or by the MAPI Calendar Table are written to a log file. The
log file contains information for the following items:* Sniffer (Inbox
auto-processing)
* Free/busy publishing
* Reminders
* Calendar item actions (creation, modification, or to deletion)
* Resource booking
The main goal of the Calendar logging feature is to quickly identify
situations where, for example, meetings are inexplicably deleted from
a Calendar folder.

Awesome; thanks. I've never used that. Good to know.

(but I'm still correct in that it isn't audited in logs)
