I suppose that could be handy.  Still can't picture the need, though.  I
regularly have meeting with 2-10 people, we're all quite busy (not that
you'd know it from my posting history here), but figuring out when we're
all free is not that big of a hassle.  Then they are able to make
priority decisions too (like, can I bump this schedule item so we can
have our meeting?).  But perhaps this system considers all that?
