For non developers/end users one extension may be "easier" however I 
could be wrong. I'm assuming using hooks would keep the extensions 
separate and easy to integrate? I'm excited to see you're choosing to 
work with extendedshop.

2 years ago I was involved in a business that could have really used a 
reservation system you are describing now. When a good solution is 
available I may be able to locate sponsors again.

Would it be possible to take advantage of the new TYPO3 calendar 
extension for managing reservations and schedules? I believe it will be 
able to sync with Mozilla Sunbird through the iCal files on other 
servers. http://www.innerjoin.org/iCalendar/

Also have a look at the t.u.australia newsgroup. There appears to be 
some good ideas here about an ecommerce reservation system called 
osCommRes. osCommRes appears to be using a data bridge between 
osCommerce and TYPO3. It would be nice if we could achieve the same 
effect with extendedshop instead of osCommerce.

Kind regards,
