  That's odd, because the AM leader board shows there is at least a
small dozen of slots free... But as a matter of a fact, this part could
become a real bottleneck again (yes I see again, when I passed NM,
having an AM needed 6+ monthes). This 4 month delay sucks, but it's a
new phenomenon afaict. By new I mean, it's a relapse.

  Maybe FD can confirm, but it also seems that there is less AMs that
there was before. I mean less slots available. As I did reduced mine, I
can tell it's half because I don't have time, and half because being an
AM suck (especially for the reasons I already cited).
