Yes, that was a good start. There isn't any support for
CIS diagrams in pgfgantt, but with lots of
trial-and-error modifications and hacks, I did an
example that could serve as skeleton code, so I should
be able to produce the 15 or so scenarios I have to
cover hopefully by just putting in digits in slots.

Note though, I'm no LaTeX expert, so this is rather a
demo that this type of task (uh) can be done with this
method, and with a reasonable effort.

The diagram:

The LaTeX code:

Thank you Alex. I was about to draw this all by hand :)
