Mark Zahra, among other things, recently released the EDD Bookings plugin for Easy Digital Downloads.  I was excited to talk to him about this because it's something that I thought of doing myself back when I was teaching multiple classes at the University of Scranton. When I was on campus to help manage a fluid schedule for my own office hours, I deemed that project was maybe a little over my head for the amount of time that I had. It's very cool to see that it's come to fruition a few years later. Mark also hosts Mastermind.FM and worked over at WP Mayor.
