of the manual nature of the process and the inherent delays it is

an appearance and the announcement.
I'm not defending the process, but I trying to explain why it sometimes

it is what it is :-(
The manual nature of the current process causes some other problems too --
particularly, the format of the announcements often deviates from the norm
(although people have gotten better about this).
