Yip that's about right. We'll be doing call for shows now based on how
full the reserve queue is, rather than on free slots in the main queue.
This is implementing something we talked about before but now are in a
place where we can implement it.
I'd like thoughts on how to signal that a show can be put into the
reserve queue ?

I like it but am not clear on how this differs from the current
program. Other than the name change, is it just a matter of
automation? Maybe encouraging a shift in focus from the calendar to
the reserve queue?

In today's show the Janitors discuss how the erratic feast/famine
nature of the queue may be helped by filling free slots in the
main feed from a reserve queue.
* The current Emergency Queue would be renamed to the Reserve Queue.
* If a free slot in the calendar is not filled in time, then a
show will be used from the Reserve Queue.
* Shows will be taken from the Reserve Queue on a first in first
out basis.
* Hosts can either schedule a show for a particular slot or have
their shows added to the Reserve Queue.
* Eventually we will we work on a dedicated upload option, but
for now hosts can pick a random slot and just make a note in
the show notes that the show is intended for the Reserve Queue.
Thoughts ?
Why yes Ken, one thing springs to mind. Should you not first pick
hosts who have not submitted a shows recently ?
Gosh Ken. That is a good point, I'll need to think about that.
Anyone else ?
