Omnibus: Weekly tasks

Introduction

A new Danish CATI omnibus is to be configured every Monday. Test links should be delivered to the client no later than 1400 DK time. The production start is usually 1600 or 1700 DK time.

Due to possible late changes in last weeks bus, the bus for next week should not be configured before the last bus is completed. (Usually Sunday evening.)

The ideal situation is keeping the monday configuration unchanged for the entire week. However, from time to time we get new projects with short notice, and sometimes these are added to the bus during the week.
