Hakim,

Great, I'm glad it works for you now.

The events_coordinator does not use any control_totals or an equivalent
of it, but the development_project_transition_model does. Yes, it uses
target_vacancies. It creates as many projects as they are needed to meet
the values in the target_vacancies table.
