Processing Feedback.

  • Apparently there exists a 'processed' flag - I have not seen it and I am uncertain about its significance.
  • In the current system, when the xml file is downloaded the order that it is listed in the proposal browse table is changed and can be somewhat confusing
  • It would be useful to have the ability to list only proposals which have not yet been printed and the xml file downloaded
    • If both the printing and xml download could be accomplished simultaneously one flag automatically set at the successful completion for each proposal

PST Documentation

  • According to the PST documentation color figures are allowed. However the documentation does not mention that proposals will NOT be sent to the referees with these figures printed in color (at least for the GBT). The documentation should be changed to indicate this clearly.
