Karl, (cc everyone on the PC)
Sorry I didn't explain my thought process fully here but yes, the PC *will* be able to leave submissions in the NEW (unassigned) state after Doug presses "Big Button". These will be submissions that are currently neither ACCEPTED nor DECLINED - the bubbles.  Doug will tell us all a schedule for his subsequent big button presses and each of those will send the additional accept/decline emails as necessary.

PC members,
So, yes, make the talks you definitely want (and fit in your allocation) as tentative ACCEPTED (background turns green, the text shows "N D") and those you definitely do not want as tentative DECLINE (background turns grey, the text shows "A N").  Leave all the bubble submissions as NEW (background white, shows "A D") and marked with the "bubble" keyword.

- Bjorn

Anything left in the NEW status will generate an error.
