I can confirm that the *Board* distributes the PMC reporting schedule to spread the monthly load evenly. We don't want one month to have 150 reports, and the next two months to have 35 each. Instead, we get 80 reports each month. (yes, we really *do* get about 80 each month, every month) Presumably, the PPMC reporting is also for load-spreading. In that scenario, choose the one with the fewest reports. In Sebb's following message, he reports "Group 3" has the lowest count, at 10. It is certainly reversible, so I'd just JFDI. Cheers, -g
