You can achieve the same with an FCFS allocation — the question still stands. There is a common template for FCFS and Spec Required allocations. Both include an optional Reference(s) field. What is the incentive to request a Spec Required vs. an FCFS? Do you expect someone will ask for the more difficult choice, when they get exactly the same result? > >> 3.

Linking to the first comment, this would further encourage allocation requests with specifications to ask for FCFS… Thanks for considering, Carlos. > > -- > Michael Richardson <mcr+i...@sandelman.ca> . o O ( IPv6 IøT consulting ) > Sandelman Software Works Inc, Ottawa and Worldwide > > > >
