# Newman-Scheduler
## a scheduling app for Newman

### Example interactions

Say we have a mailing list named _firefly_, and members send to the address
[email protected]_.

#### 1. Propose an event to the mailing list.

From: Hoban Washburne
To: [email protected]
Subject: Availability for a picnic | week of Mar 19 | 90 minutes

Hello comrades, can we picnic this week?

(The last two |-delimited fields of the subject are interpreted as the range of
dates and time duration of the event. If they aren't given, the sender will get
an error reply describing the syntax with examples).

Subscribers to the list get the email forwarded with instructions to send in
their availability. The reply-to address is the availability address, so they
can simply reply to the email with their availability.
