>
> 4) Defining a SOP for FreeMedia program
> Susmit recall how the FreeMedia program was managed by Thomas Chung.
> Now thanks to the new infrastructure we are moving to, we have to
> clearly define a Standard Operating procedure: when to open the request
> form and when to close it. Susmit suggested to open it on the 2st of
> each month and close it few days afters. At the end of the months, it
> suggests to close all the pending requests.
