I would be comfortable with shelving this until a bit later, though we 
should move on it as soon as you can rejoin us. I am primarily concerned 
about the rest of us hearking your (and Ops') position accurately and 
understanding it. Perhaps I can gather thoughts from the proponents of 
using CaseTracker and summarize for you and all to see, making it easier 
for you to consider and respond to. Would that make sense?

That definitely is my recollection and understanding, at least as far as 
the receipt of requests, processing, and notification of the requester 
goes. I think, though, we are not collectively clear on the 
authorization/approval part of the process, hence my earlier e-mail and 
suggestions.
