The scheduling guidelines in the about page, and on the calendar would benefit from a flow diagram.

Read them like this.


"You must have your audio recording ready to upload before you pick a slot."

IF you do not have your recording ready then STOP.

ELSE

"New hosts, Interviews, and other time critical shows should use the first free slot."

IF you are a *New Host* post to the first free slot.

ELSE

IF your show is an *Interview* post to the first free slot.

ELSE

IF your show is *time critical*, then post to the first free slot.
# A *time critical* show might be, but is not limited to: promoting and upcoming event, a security breach, a special offer etc

ELSE

"Always try and fill any free slots that are available in the upcoming two weeks."

IF there are free slots in the next 14 days then post to the first free slot.

ELSE

# "When the queue is filling up then leave some slots free for new contributors."

"If you are uploading a series of shows then post them one every two weeks."

IF this is PART OF SERIES of shows (urban camping, Plain Text Programming, etc) THEN skip 14 days and post to the first free slot after then.

ELSE

    "Post non urgent shows into the first empty week."

    SKIP to the first EMPTY WEEK and post there.

OR

    "If you have a non urgent show that is timeless, then add it to the Reserve Queue."

    ADD to the RESERVE QUEUE
