Hi,

I assume that anyone having trouble will notify the Secretariat and they
will help them, giving them leeway if there were problems.

Curious, what is the count of submitted applications?  And is there any
means of identifying in progress applications.

If any extension is given I suggest it only be for submissions already
in progress and be for 1 day only.
