Technical Assistance Needed - Frontline Hanging

I’m with the Clinton Health Access Initiative in Malawi. We’re piloting Frontline SMS at 4 rural health centers to follow up patients when they miss appointments and to notify them when to return for test results.

What I would like to do is for people to be able to send a message to say if they will attend. Then for that message to be stored until a certain time. Then if there are a certain number of messages collected ( a quorum for the meeting) then all those people will be sent a message to say that the meeting will go ahead.
