They are not new changes. As with most policies on the site it has been discussed on the list at one time or another. Anything on HPR can be challenged at any time by bringing it up for debate on the list itself. The reason for the getting permission for a reservation from the list is that there is a cost involved in doing shows out of sequence. First we need to manually monitor the queue to make sure the show is posted on time. Then when we do get the shows we then need to process them manually outside the normal (semi)automatic workflow. It's happened before (a lot) that shows were booked on the calendar in order to act as some kind of anti-procrastination tactic. This didn't always work, which left slots that need to be filled at the last minute. This meant we had to run around to find a filler show to fill the just vacated slot. Then others got annoyed as they saw the filler show as someone "jumping the queue" when they had spent the time and effort to get their material in on time. Now once you have a show, you upload it and pick the day you want it to go out. > I request July 8, 2016. > dw If your show is already recorded then upload it right now and pick that slot. http://hackerpublicradio.org/request.php?id=2070 Once it's processed it will appear automatically under the normal workfl ow. Anyone should only need to make a reservation if they want to release on a particular slot but can not record the audio until later. The mailing list should be given a reason why they can't record the show and why they should be given special treatment. I haven't seen any of the request challenged to date. - -- Regards, Ken Fallon http://kenfallon.com http://hackerpublicradio.org/correspondents.php?hostid=30 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJWW1IGAAoJECO2jUN3MRFpcfIQAIGaOTVfr91qHVMQeZxXL3PX ro3Wwj229sQKiL7HVAk6+uit0KgHV98JEN3Q5ZKAR9/bS2EsuakQVasGO1d9XR8K dzVKOrzju/w2XyXLPkwO1VGHGZszLEhHRoFlQDHPDeSBdi2X/swUHFvx65U+pf8H Vvi88pk415MoSEG5dLMp2BGwyU3RJns4Cnon+kvo9nres4SAEUj8N2IuP9ynsG0m ZlPvHja3rQHqPSLU07R5IthBIh0mEbT2JZhv46yVne0905UDBXF5sDlEKELgpPcN 1KMh7+6rAid/nbAUYu2oGqkVXjP+Vrj51S+Rks+2lXZiIdFK9m4kcWLwjJYshhi2 jMu/Uuk3GtLnzfIQU+Hu1moZGa4cLivMLTOBhEiRLf+92OXWvS8I3ZwhzI2FA5Wl bUU6aVqLsELMzggzxAync57D0dNXPjU+JvuwVwFUFCWO4IMh2ldV6ByfG2029zma LHUEZjakkoyKP0SWz5f0or7l8bD4d1PGdBUSy47yx6z0Mggvyk/DK/inuflqO7qW 9RJPUMcx7A+ci53tEJCLUD4224ZkhCploJnIy3+P3E8OMG1KpaAn3c0Xk80Rv4+Y 5XU2CwesGic4JY8FcZo+dhOLDe7bM1/T8xyxScxmKYZmEZLgooR4wHrdphIW5EKB Hmz3McMPbxakW/8eWLbe =JlXv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Hpr mailing list [email protected] http://hackerpublicradio.org/mailman/listinfo/hpr_hackerpublicradio.org
