I'll have several time slots, and I want the students to reserve one for each of them. I'd like to publish a table with "free/reserved" info on the web. I don't want any fancy web forms and automatic reservation, just emails+manual updates of the table. Can you imagine any way Org (with tables, or maybe scheduling) might help, so that I don't have to write html by hand, for instance?
