2 years ago Love this. Would be cooler and more a demonstration of a "fully-baselined" pattern (with third party signalling -- pub/sub -- under zero knowledge via a ccsm) if the end goal wasn't simply to find a timeslot between Alice and Bob but rather to perhaps find some number of slots that work for Alice and Bob and then recursively to signal Charlie to run same comparison, with either the result that there are some number of slots that now work for Alice, Bob and Charlie, or returning back to Alice and Bob that none of their times works for Charlie...and then so on...do the same with Diane (if Charlie result found one or more slots that worked).

Baseline Calendar

Description
Grant Value - $6,000
Develop an example of the Baseline Protocol where I Bob book a time with Alice without viewing all of Alice's availability.
This could be expanded to allow multiple people to schedule a meeting and synchronize everyone's calendar, and could be split up to create a simple version vs. implementation.
Use case 1: Bob wants to meet with Alice. Bob enters into a field that he needs to meet for 30 minutes, as well as blocks of time that work for him. The MSA will select a time for him on Alice's calendar that falls within these parameters (assuming such a time exists). This stops Bob from ever finding out any additional information of when Alice is free or busy, outside of the given slot which he just received.
Use case 2: If someone is currently viewing my Calendly, they have access to all available/busy times, I would prefer if they can input their needs (duration, etc.) and availability, and then the slot will get booked after verifying my availability.

Motivation
To create a fully working implementation of baseline that can be used as another example of the power baseline has.
