I am being pessimistic - I was worried about a part of the spec I am  
not familiar with, and also about the complexity of the algorithm  
that collapses overlapping events into free time blocks.

And I have to concur with Brian in saying that if it fits into the  
schedule why cut it, unless other more important stuff starts taking  
longer?
