I just finished building a complete system of this kind for a client of mine. This kind of system isn't as trivial as you may think. There are parts that require heavy lifting, especially in the area of repeat operations. It is also difficult to generalize the problem to all systems, vs. specialize to a specific set of resources. I can guarantee that the requirements for allocating time for a manufacturing machine is not the same as allocating time for a meeting room or for a human being. I would council the respondents to this message to consider carefully whether to put in a lot of time and effort for this request without carefully considering all the requirements for this kind of system. A simple example case may be instructive, however, an industrial-strength system that serves many masters will be something altogether different and considerably more complex. Any system would also require an api in addition to a GUI. I seriously doubt a general system that would gain wide-spread acceptance could be built in under a couple-hundred hours or more. If I were allocating Massimo's time, which I stress I'm not, I would rather have him developing a comprehensive web2py reference manual to complement the current user's manual as there would be much more leverage in such an activity.
