Hi,

I'm new to SharePoint, and I have a scenario that I'm wondering whether
SharePoint can help us with.

We have a team of 4-5 people working on support of a service. At least one
of these people need to be on call at any given time. At the moment they
communicate with eachother "manually", dividing time on call by email or
phone.

We'd like to publish these users' Outlook calendars to one shared calendar,
enable all users to view eachothers' availability and reserve time slots for
when they're on call.

Two of these users are not members of the same domain/Exchange organization.

Does SharePoint support this out-of-the-box? If not, are there any web parts
available (commercial or freeware) with this functionality?

Ideally we would like two-way sync between Outlook and the shared calendar.

Thanks,
Jørn
