Hi John.  I just completed work on the script for people to check the status
of their own requests in the queue. You can now refer them to
http://snowy.arsc.alaska.edu/cgi-bin/cdproject/dvdstatus.cgi .

If their request is flagged, waiting for checkout, or checked out, it tells
them how many people are ahead of them and how many discs we've been
processing per week.  This last number is based on the number of check ins
over the last 10 weeks/10.  It also divides the number ahead of them by the
average per week and gives that to them as the number of weeks they should
expect to wait.

If someone looks up a request that has been already mailed, it tells them
that and tells them not to contact us about it until 30 days after it was
sent.  Of course, I was a little more tactful than that, but that's the
idea.

Feel free to check it out and let me know if you see things that need
tweaked or changed.

Sincerely
Aaron Cannon
