Hello pchan,

I strongly second Avaneesh's suggestion, and even more if it is
possible !
I.e. user-defined fields for integers, reals and variable-length
strings.
As it is, GCal is already doing a superb job. Best greetings to every
member of the team!

Thank you!

In case you haven't seen this yet, there is a facility called 'extended
properties' for custom name-value pairs:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/google-calendar-help-dataapi/browse_thread/thread/3727b4956bfdfd82/2cf181cd17e9bb0d?lnk=gst&q=extended+properties&rnum=3#2cf181cd17e9bb0d

There are a few caveats currently (listed in that post), but it does
sound like it could be useful for you.

Cheers,

-Ryan

appreciate having a duration field in their events. There is a big
difference between
- lapse duration that you can calculate from start/end times, and
- paid duration that you actually get paid for (and what is really
requested here)
The effective duration may or may not include many things: meals,
preparation time
(like putting on/taking off protection suits, briefing, etc.) transport
time to/from work site.
It all depends on your local work convention.
