I guess the main reason why VSC looks slow is that CSC has about 1500 petitions in a month and VSC about 4000 ))) Most of approvals are hidden from our eyes we can see only those who are registered on the website.

I don't know why they're so unbalanced. You'd think they'd have an equal share of workload. And yeah I know we can only gauge who is on here, so I can hardly imagine what it would be like to know nothing of any progress for someone outside of the forums! Yikes!

Plan!? Do tell!

PM'd you. happy.png It's worst case scenario but it's something.

I was just going to start reading up on the next steps again as I hadn't really looked at them since January. Guess I better get going!
