Steve,

Thank you for your response. The approach you described is similar to
what I was also considering, except I was planning on using Google's
Distance Matrix API
(http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/distancematrix/) to
pull the time-distances between clients. Every morning, when that
day's roster is confirmed, I would generate a graph containing that
day's clients. Doing this would reduce it to an OR problem to
determine good routes.

However I was considering pgrouting because its seems like the DARP
branch (http://www.pgrouting.org/docs/1.x/darp.html) is already
capable of making calculations like this. Perhaps I misunderstanding
pgrouting's capabilities?

Andy
