[labnetwork] Equipment Online Scheduling Recomendation

[Michael Rooks]

We use Badger, which is the new version of Coral (developed at 
Stanford).  Badger can be used for both scheduling and charging for 
laboratory equipment use. When using Badger for billing, it can control 
ethernet-connected relay boxes (e.g. to switch off monitors).

It's not free, but you get what you pay for. Contact Mike Bell 
<mailto:mikebell at stanford.edu> for more information.

We used to use a Google calendar for scheduling, but it got too chaotic. 
Google can't enforce any time limit rules, unlike Badger.
