So, the project that I have been working on for the pass few weeks is finally up and running. As a recap, the reunion project is a small tool useful for planning and visualizing a date to hold an event. A list of people and dates are put into the system by the administrator. For each person the admin page allows marking off which dates they are unavailable or cant make it to the event if it is held on that date. The administrator can then view the index page to see which dates will have the most people be able to make it.

The viewing page lists each proposed date, gives a color rating to it as to how viable the date is, lists with who can’t make it and a yes/no chart of available/unavailable people. This allows the user to quickly assess what dates are the best for everyone.

I believe this tool has potential to be extended into a larger system for event planning. I will be releasing the source code soon for anyone who wants to use this or develop the code more. For now here is the tool to play around with. Feed back (pb4(at)leadiv.com) is always appreciated.
