The Vaults are run by one of my colleagues, who is (as it seems we all
are), rather overworked these days.  Last I heard he had someone who was
helping him every once in a while to review the new submissions, but
that was quite a while ago.  I don't *think* there's any discarding, but
rather a delay so long in publishing that it would feel like a discard...

Take care,
Mike
