Aaah! Here's a question I've yet to have someone properly answer: What

A few others at Murdoch are also interested, so we may do it internally,
but I'll definitely keep you posted on what happens if you want (and
I'll try and get 'em to make it OpenSource. ^_^)

A bit more than that, I think. Time sheets imply paper tables to me,
while this is more a general database geared towards time and physical
resource condition and evolution. ^_^
