We're using Meeting Maker here, as the best of a sorry lot, sadly. We
really needed something that handled resource scheduling, which is
something that Meeting Maker didn't do very well. OTOH, it's a good
group and individual calendar and scheduling program, very x-platform,
and very resource light. We run our server on an old 486/33...others on
campus have run their server on someone's workstation.

Beyond that I really can't say...I administer the server, but don't use
it at all...I'm quite calendar-ically challenged. IF I remember it get's
put in my trusty ol' newton, but remembering the event once I schedule
it?...fuggetaboutit.

I need a scheduling program that hunts me down wherever I am, slaps me
upside the head, and says "You have a meeting now, you idiot!" as it
drags me down the hall to the meeting ;-) A bit beyond any of the
software I've ever found...
