Hello Lars and team - thanks for having a look at this for us.

The requirement has emerged out of the success of the system Mike built to
manage placement allocations for all Interns and Community Service Doctors
in South Africa. Newly qualified doctors apply centrally, expressing their
priority choices for hospital placements for their two years of internship
and one year of community service. We run an algorithm to determine which
hospital each doctor gets sent to.

Both doctors and government love the system. It's email tool now provides
the formal mechanism for communicating with these doctors about the
placement process. Unfortunately, with the batch size limits, we're having
to setup the small batches manually. The current cohort of doctors is about
4,000 and the next cohort of nurses could reach 10,000.

Please advise if this needs to go into Launchpad or GitHub, or if you deal
with this sort of request differently.

Your assistance will be very helpful.

Best regards,
Sean
