There will be a "sent off for shipment" table that should be showing
up in shipit as soon as I get confirmation that we're moving ahead
with the database dump I sent off.

I won't be able to have a date shipped I don't think because we're not
doing the shipment ourselves and it's not entirely clear how the
company that is pressing and shipping CDs will be going through the
list and on what timescale. We only know it will probably take them
several weeks to work through it all. I can certainly alert the list
when the first batch is successfully finished.

Mako
