a091e38bc4 Booking queue: full campaign reservations attempted, quota documented
All seven remaining campaign sessions were attempted against
reservations.itelescope.net in one pass. The rolling reservation allowance
(8 hours outstanding on Plan-40) admitted only the Cat's Paw Ha session
(749230, T8, night of 26 Jul, verified via Edit.aspx?id= since the grid
cannot page that far forward); the other six returned 'quota.' and are
recorded as a ready-to-fire queue with exact New.aspx parameters. All plans
are uploaded and verified on T8/T32/T59; T70's plan could not be uploaded
(scope server unreachable, consistent with the Chile outage) and its entry
is blocked pending the server returning.

Substitution rules recorded: T71, if it returns, takes the widefield
sessions (better optics, lower rate); T70 books as-is if reachable; status
line checked before every booking round. Booking cadence: a daily job (or
manual 'process the booking queue') books queue items in order as completed
sessions release quota.
