Yes, you can digg its specs here:

  http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2445.txt

Then you'll see things like:

  ORGANIZER:MAILTO:jane_doe@host1.com
  ATTENDEE:MAILTO:john_public@host2.com

which might be added to Org[1] so that an .org file can be exported in
.ics and so that this .ics resource can be useful as a shared resource
for collaboration.  You can already use it like this (i do), but maybe
some other keywords (like the two above) would be nice to have.

But the .ics solution still requires that you answer this question: who
is able to edit the .org source file(s)? 

Notes: 
[1]  I'm not sure this as to be native in Org.  Maybe an option saying
     what property of en entry should be exported to a .ics keyword is
     needed at some point.
