But do we know how often it gets used say every month, every quarter,
every 6 months? Are we talking about 1% of the devel packageset being
impacted in a six month period by the AWOL process? Again "quite a
lot"   is being used in a very qualitative way.  We aren't talking
about tens of people like you using it heavily are we? How much of the
orphaning activity is prompted by AWOL versus proactive
self-assessment?
