I was just thinking if a USERID:DATE:TIME:PRI exists in 1 file and not
in another then the file that does not have it will be given a zero
score.

Here is an outline:
A=list of people
B=1/2 hr time slots that all people can meet
C=number of contigous time slots for meeting
D=combinations of B that can satisfy C, where D < B
E=D where all people can attend, where E < D
then what to do if E contains say 2 time slots, where slot1 total score
is say 2 and slot2 total score is 12

need 1 hour for meeting
2006-02-20:1000-1030: total 2
2006-02-20:1030-1100: total 12
should you schedule the meeting for 1000-1100?
cheers,
Kev
