Stephen - this would seem to fall within the remit of automation,  
though I don't know there's an existing process.

It would be great if the group could address this at their next  
meeting (which I presume is Saturday at 2pm). There are places in  
studio that could be used for such CDs, and perhaps someone in  
Automation could take responsibility for processing such requests, as  
well notifying the RFU list - or maybe the Automation group could set  
up a general process for dealing with this, with several people within  
Automation dealing with requests as they arise.
