Meeting Room Booking System (MRBS) is a free, GPL, web application using PHP and MySQL/pgsql for booking meeting rooms. This project is similar in concept to Netscape Calendar, but much cheaper!
MRBS is very reliable at this point. All the features that are needed in day-to-day operation are included. It's very intuitive for users, so very little or no instruction is needed. It is in production use at many large organisations around the world for uses as diverse as it's originally intended meeting rooms to restaurant tables and aeroplanes at a flying school!
Different languages are supported, there are translations for many languages available (currently Czech, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish). If your language is not supported it is very easy to customize as all strings are stored in language-specific files.
