I suppose Alan would have to decide if that's feasible.  FWIW, I did  
something similar at a previous job.  I was a lone  
OSX/(Mail|Thunderbird)/iCalendar user among Win/Outlook/Outlook folks.  
  They would send meeting invites as .ics attachments, and I was able  
to import/use them without problems.  I don't know how that's  
configured on the Outlook side, but however they did it worked a treat.
