That's a very plausible approach. If we could: 1. designate groups, 2.
designate times for redirection for each group. It is a different method
but would it seems that it would accomplish the same end result.

Derek,
Another method of doing this would be a rule-writer that could write
individual IP rules for all the users in these buckets:
Hm, that could be quite complex and I'm not yet convinced that
dynamically creating and deleting large number of rules in an
autometed way is the way to go.
I somehow like the proposal that Andre had ("Another approach would be
to forward user requests based on the systemtime. For instance, for a
certain group of users all requests could be forwarded to the ICAP
server between :00 and :05, between :15 and :20, between :30 and :35
etc."). Any drawback to that solution?
