Meeting planner/attendance/event hack

[2root4u]

I'm looking for a way to track which of my members will be coming to an event. I see three main ways of doing this:

1) Utilize the poll functionality which is probably the easiest way to do this. It already allows for a post to describe the event, date, and time. It allows people to vote Attending, Not Attending, or Maybe. The only thing it lacks is the ability for others to see everyone who has confirmed attending, not attending, or maybe. Probably not a big deal to make poll items clickable to show who voted for each item.

2) Code this functionality from scratch and tie it to a Calendar event. This would take more work, but it would be nice to have it show up when the event is clicked on.

3) Use the poll functionality as in item 1, but also tie it to a calendar event.

- Does anyone know of a hack that might suit my need?
- If not, anyone up for the task?
